Our guide to working with young people! – Highfurlong’s Pupil Resilience Committee
Take a look at Our Guide to Working with Young People! We are Highfurlong’s Pupil Resilience Committee, and as part of the Resilience Revolution, we have co-produced this resource so that people can learn from our lived experience and expertise.
We know things are not always easy, however we hope that our guide can give some practical ways of improving how you work alongside young people of all abilities. We are very proud of our achievement and plan to share this guide far and wide so that as many people as possible can begin to do the basic things well, ensuring ALL young people have positive experiences.
Thank you for reading.
Yours resiliently, The Inspire Group, Highfurlong School.
