Support for schools/colleges

We also provide support for schools to complete Young Carers in Schools Award. This is a free initiative that makes it as easy as possible for schools to support young carers, and awards good practice.

The Young Carers in Schools (YCiS) initiative is run jointly by Carers Trust and The Children’s Society.

By taking part in the programme, schools will be able to show they are meeting the needs of this particularly vulnerable pupil group. As many as one in 5 secondary school pupils could be a young carer.

Find out more on the Children’s Society website – Here.
