EDUCATION NEEDS YOUTH WORK 🤓

Today is the last day of YouthLink Scotland Education Needs Youth Work Campaign!

So we asked staff from Girvan Youth Trust and Girvan Academy to share their thoughts on why #EducationNeedsYouthWork 🤩

We’re refurbishing the toilets at Ainslie Park in Girvan! Works will run from Mon 26 Feb - Fri 19 April 2024. The toilets will be completely closed during the works. The nearest public toilets are located at Girvan harbour.

Both brilliant projects which really support groups of our young people Girvan Youth Trust

Just a couple of stories to highlight why #EducationNeedsYouthWork 🤩 The StreetLights Detached Youth Work Team use Street Based Engagement to support young people to positively engage with their education - especially those who are disengaged ➗️➕️✖️🟰 #WorkWithSchools

🙌 Great case study from Girvan Youth Trust & Girvan Academy

💷 Investing in their youth work partnership through Pupil Equity Spend has increased engagement and attainment by breaking down barriers to learning!
