After Children. 7. A programme targeting yr7 and yr8 children in care and their carers to raise the aspirations and progression to HE. Started in Leeds and expanded to West Yorkshire Aimhigher partnership co-ordinated by HEAR WY. 10-15 participants each year.
After Children. Where a looked after child/care leaver is arrested or prosecuted Children’s Social Care can contact YOS staff for advice/support where the young person is not already subject to YOS intervention. Where a risk of offending is identified then a member of the YOS team must be invited to statutory reviews to consider possible input. Where a young person is subject to YOS supervision may require accommodation for welfare reasons the YOS will refer to Social Care and housing protocols and will provide support and information to the relevant services. For young people aged 16 and over The Greater Manchester Homeless 16 & 17 year old policy can be found at: xxxx://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx/chapters/p_homless_16_17.html Once a young person becomes ‘looked after’ responsibility for placement planning, supervision and reviewing rests with Children’s Social Care whist the YOS retains statutory responsibility for core youth justice services. YOS has responsibility to follow safeguarding procedures. The 10 Point Plan has been devised by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) to ensure that young people who are looked after are not disadvantaged by the criminal justice system process for offences committed within their care home environment. The 10 Point Plan ensures that only offences of sufficient seriousness or that are in the public’s interest are brought to Court. The Police and CPS must refer to the 10 Point Plan prior to charging any young person with an offence. In cases where a young person appears before the court and the 10 Point Plan has not been followed, an adjournment will be requested and the case will be referred back to the Police for this to be undertaken.

After Children. 8.10 The University is involved in an Aimhigher project (with Northumbria and Sunderland universities) to support the progression of Looked After Children, who are also automatically eligible for support through our PARTNERS Programme. Children from care backgrounds are encouraged to identify any particular support needs on entry. We are currently seeking accreditation from The Xxxxx Xxxxxx Trust. Safeguarding Aimhigher activity
After Children. Looked after children are a particularly vulnerable group. In 2005 only one out of thirty looked after children achieved five GCSE A*- C, as compared to other children in the borough where nearly 60% achieve five GCSE A*- C. A good education leads to improved employment opportunities, therefore improving educational achievement will help improve the future economic well being and quality of life for looked after children. Currently 80% of our looked after children are in xxxxxx care placements, the other 20% are in alternative provision including residential care homes. Evidence clearly indicates that looked after children in xxxxxx care placements are less vulnerable across a wide range of issues e.g. becoming involved in crime and prostitution. For this reason we want to increase the number of children who are afforded the opportunity to be placed in xxxxxx care. Looked after children do not always enjoy the same health benefits as other children. There is also a higher teenage conception rate amongst this group. Ensuring regular access to health services is important and ensures basic health standards but also helps looked after children access services in the future. We want to ensure that all looked after children access the services they need.
After Children. We aim to increase the numbers of looked after children accessing our courses and support their retention and progression. We have already been awarded the Xxxxx Xxxxxx Trust Quality mark and have implemented a number of support schemes for care-leavers. At present, Local Authorities‟ reports suggest that between 30-40 looked-after children entered the university in 2007/8. We aim to increase the confirmed number, which shall become the baseline, and ensure progression and retention and will be devising mechanisms for identification and tracking.
