    Situation

    The refugee young people we work with are substantially behind at every educational Key Stage, which can result in low attainment levels, challenging behaviour, risk of exclusion and restricted opportunities in life/employment. Refugee young people have low levels of English (esp. vocabulary); interrupted schooling; traumatic experiences; lack of home learning support; not understanding UK education system; low confidence; racism and bullying; Special Education Needs not being addressed.

    Solution

The team needs a leader to increase the impact and deepen the scope and quality of the support we offer.
