We support placing authorities in achieving good outcomes for young people to enable them to acquire practical living skills measured under the outcome groups set out under the Every Child Matters framework.
Although the support/ care we provide will be in accordance with the jointly agreed care plan, which will identify the purpose and objectives of the placement, however the followings are a list of what we can provide. This list is not exhausted/ limited in what we can support. The aim of our supported Living Service is to help young people develop their skills, in order to progress to greater independence, and further integration into the community.
Training
Sourcing training opportunities for young people, to make it easier for them to find employment will be a critical part of ABC’S core focus.
We are committed to ensuring that we provide opportunities for all young people to develop their skills and contribute to their personal and professional success.
It is widely recognised that despite the lack of formal training of many young people, it is believed that they learn a lot and more quickly in their first working years. The skills developed by young people often fall into one of three categories:
- general transferable skills – centred on understanding workplace procedures, and learning appropriate behaviour, assets employers hold in high regard
- occupational or sector transferable skills – which can have wide applicability, eg customer care, answering the telephone, typing and computer skills etc.
- organisation or job specific skills – eg understanding of an employer’s particular systems or products which may have limited transferability.
Employers often recruit young people to specific jobs (either because of their youthful attributes or because they are willing to work for low wages) or onto some form of traineeship (either with a specific end in sight or as a less specified development route).
ABC is committed to:
- reducing the number of young offenders not in education, employment or training (NEET)
- engage young offenders after the school leaving age to raise awareness of the training and employment opportunities available
- engage with training/employment providers to address their perceptions of these young people and ensure that young offenders can access opportunities
- take a holistic approach to reducing the number of young offenders who are NEET by addressing other related issues such as accommodation and health.
