At Risk Of Permanent Exclusion
Support your child in making better choices and turning their school experience around before it’s too late. This focused intervention helps them understand the impact of their actions and develop strategies to stay on track.
Children and young people who attend these one-to-one sessions will:
✔ Participate in challenging and thought-provoking conversations, getting them thinking about the choices they are making now and how these choices will impact their future.
✔ Understand the importance of a growth mindset and a solutions-focused approach to the challenges between them and their education, whilst exploring and identify solutions and strategies to get them back on track and turn things around.
✔ Be supported to focus on and dive deep into key areas of their lives, including school, peer groups and future ambitions, identifying strengths and starting points for the areas identified as requiring development, whilst reflecting on barriers to their success.
✔ Be supported to form a personalised plan of action, allowing them to begin making more positive choices and agree new ways to try to overcome obstacles.
✔ Be advised of practical strategies and tools to help them manage challenges.
This intervention is specifically for children and young people who:
➤ Are regularly being suspended from school.
➤ Are at risk of permanent exclusion from school.
➤ Do not see the point of school or education.
➤ Do not recognise the value of school and education.
➤ Feel unheard and/or unsupported in school.
➤ Feel unable to change or make better choices.

My career in education and safeguarding has been dedicated to helping vulnerable individuals make positive choices and turn their lives around.
