Background
The Achievement Coaching programme has been designed to work with young people who have been identified as at high risk of becoming NEET (Not in Education, Employment or Training) and targets young people who are, or who have been:
- A looked after child or care leaver
- Young carers
- Issued an Education Health and Care Plan
- At the risk of being asked to leave post-16 school/college, e.g. due to poor attendance or not meeting other requirements such as homework etc.
- At the risk of dropping out of post-16 school/college due to poor course choice and needing support to identify their next steps
What we’re doing
Young people aged 11-17 in Tameside, Manchester and Trafford are provided with weekly 1-2-1 sessions with our experienced youth workers. These sessions are designed to empower young people to become emotionally resilient, productive, and capable of achieving their full potential.
During coaching sessions, youth workers will support young people to:
- Explore their feelings
- Achieve personal goals
- Seek long-term ambitions
- Discuss problems openly
- Receive coaching through challenges
Our mentors offer bespoke advice and guidance tailored to each young person’s unique needs and aspirations.
