Foster Carers Information
We offer training and support to foster carers as they have such important roles to play in supporting children and young people in their homes to succeed and access education.
Training
We offer training to foster carers by working together with the supervising social worker teams. This includes training on:
- transitions between key stages
- attendance
- exam preparation support
- the value of reading.
Benefits of cultural and leisure activities
It has been shown that children in care who are involved in cultural and leisure activities can have very high positive benefits including improvements in levels of attainment at school. Activities included can be anything from:
- sports and arts
- clubs
- additional education learning.
