Our Programmes |
All of our learning courses are tailored to the individuals' modality, ensuring flexibility of what, how and where young people study; this methodology increases participation. Work based learning is an additional component of our programmes. Pro-active intervention is a crucial component of our outreach programme structure. Our courses have the capacity to prepare and equip young people with a full range of skills that will be needed if they are to gain full time employment, training or educational placements. Each programme last between six to eight weeks. Once the courses have been successfully completed the young person will have the opportunity to go on a work experience placement. (in line with Every Child Matters achieve economic wellbeing) |

The following information pertains to the different types of support, intervention and or accommodation we currently provide to local authorities and educational establishments. |
Constructive activities |
Activities include football, arts work such as music, dance, painting, drama and outdoor activities like quad biking and paint balling. Most projects incorporate elements from other programmes, enabling young people to gain a feeling of self worth more over achievement. Engaging young people's interest and nurturing their talents often is a means of focusing their action on positive aspects of their lives. It is a well known fact we all learn best when we are enjoying ourselves, resulting in long-term effectiveness, and sustainable capacity building. |
