Our summer school for young people features in Refugee Education UK report

Report title: Education provision for newly arrived displaced adolescents

We are delighted to let you know that the summer school organised by Herts Welcomes Refugees last year for asylum seekers  who were too old for school but too young for college has featured in a case study in the report by Refugee Education UK and The Bell Foundation:  'Education provision for newly arrived displaced adolescents.'   

The research finds that late arrivals may remain out of education for extended periods of time, and that accessing secondary education becomes increasingly difficult the later the young people arrive in the UK.

The case study is on p.34 as an example of the charity sector bridging the gap for these young people.
