Caring2Learn is a research project to support children and young people who are:

• looked after
• previously looked after
• vulnerable

We want to provide all our looked after children and young people with the foundation for them to:

• have the confidence to go on to learn
• be aspirational
• achieve their full potential

Aims of the project

Caring2Learn aims to:

• improve learning through knowledgeable care and learning communities
• ensure our children and young people feel safe and believe they belong
• upskill and support our carers and educators to help:
  • support children and young people in and out of education settings
  • support the wellbeing, emotional and mental health of all vulnerable children
  • encourage active participation in education and improve attendance
  • reduce the number of exclusions of vulnerable children
  • encourage higher aspiration and self-esteem
