Young Carers Sample Clauses

Young Carers. As part of a new collaboration for 2015/16, the University of Surrey has developed a strong working relationship with Surrey Young Carers, part of the organisation Action for Carers Surrey. In March 2016, we hosted the ‘See Us - Supporting Young Adult Carers’ Seminar’. This was a ‘carer led’ event for FEC and secondary school staff run collaboratively with Action for Carers and the Higher Education Outreach Network (HEON). The seminar was delivered by seven young adult carers and attended by eleven delegates. The aim of the event was to discuss the challenges Young Adult Carers face when trying to access HE, share good practice and create an action plan to help young carers succeed and progress to university. After the event, 100% of attendees strongly agreed that they have a better understanding of how [they] can support students with caring responsibilities at school/college. We work closely with Surrey Young Carers to offer a programme of targeted activities to support young carers, the first of which was piloted in 2015/16 and was aimed at Young Carers in Year 8 and 9. Feedback from the event was extremely positive and 100% of students agreed or strongly agreed that they had a better understanding of the differences between school and university and 100% felt that they had a better understanding of the routes into a variety of careers. As a result of the success of our work with Young Carers, we intend to continue to develop and expand our provision for this group and to further establish our collaborative approach with Surrey Young Carers.

Young Carers. Support for carers is similar to that provided for looked after young people. We have a protocol in place with both young carers’ centres in Dundee and Angus to support carers and recognise their responsibilities. Support provided is usually on a one to one basis to manage social, emotional, personal issues being dealt with, and includes extensive liaison with and referral to other agencies relevant for young carers and young adult carers to assist them with their caring role. The latest complete information available (2011 national census) gave the following number of young carers and young adult carers within the regional area:- Area All people aged 16 to 24 People aged 16 to 24 who provide unpaid care Percentage Angus 11480 473 4.10% Dundee City 24465 844 3.40% Scotland 632488 27391 4.30% During session 2014/15 the College enrolled 177 full time students (3.4%) who identified themselves as young carers or young adult carers. Academic support is required by some carers as they may have learning needs, have missed sections of their education, or lack confidence in their skills. Support plans detailing where more flexibility may be required such as start and finish time of classes, need to attend more appointments for the person they care for, assessment extensions as required/appropriate at times of ill health or crisis for the person they care for. At D&A, we have set up the We Care @ D&A group and initiative to ensure our students and staff with caring responsibilities are aware of the support on offer to them. The student element was launched in October at the RESPECT week events. So far, We Care @ D&A has:  Held a student focus group to hear from our learners who have caring responsibilities  Held partnership meetings with Xxxxxx and Angus carer centres to look at ways to work together  Developed a student carer card for use in College  Developed a Carers policy We will continue to share and standardise practice and approaches with our local authority partners to ensure that the educational transitions and outcomes in place for young carers and care leavers are as effective as they can be.
