A programme to support young people who are at risk of falling into violence to avoid exclusion – from school and from society | incubated @yearhere | #socent
Today I was in a YOI talking yo young people about conflict and violence, there was cause for real hope in their attitudes and behaviours. But also concern about once released where will the support be to help them get an education or jobs. @MayorofLondon@sajidjavid@tes
The number of exclusions in the most deprived areas of England has gone up by over 70% in the last four years - there is high need for early intervention solutions that support children to avoid exclusion, the resulting stigma & negative outcomes. https://t.co/hy5pfQCjyG

A few weeks ago I completed a Suicide Intervention course with @THE_OLLIE_FOUND. On this #WorldMentalHealthDay2018 there is nothing I could recommend more than everyone trying to complete this life-supporting training! Thanks @kookyK8 for bringing it to my awareness xx
Today we attended the launch of the #WeAllHaveMentalHealth animation and toolkit for secondary schools from the @AFNCCF! We deeply admire their work on creating easily adopted and accessible material & tools on mental health for young people, their families & teachers!

Today we’re taking some time out to reflect on our impact model and gather incredibly useful learnings from the work of leading practitioners in the field on how to increase effectiveness at the #gathering18 organised by The Centre for Youth Impact!
And this is exactly what SupportEd is passionately trying to tackle! We think exclusions are unacceptable and highly preventable - the children affected deserve much better support to overcome their challenges so that they can stay in mainstream education! https://t.co/mMZYjIut3M
