Engage in Education
The Engage in Education programme offers schools and academies specialist services designed to increase the attendance and attainment of pupils most at risk of exclusion from school.
'Catch22 has been working in education for many years. The strength of our approach is that we not only improve the educational attainment of the young people we work with but also support their emotional and developmental growth. We know that the right interventions create a lifelong impact on young people facing challenges.'
Steph Taylor, Assistant Director, Education
How we work
With teams in Bristol, Croydon, Essex, Newcastle and Greater Manchester, Engage in Education will support 11 to 16-year-olds at risk of exclusion from school back into mainstream education.
Through Catch22's existing strong partnerships with secondary schools and academies, Engage in Education will work to prevent exclusions by offering:
- one-to-one support from key workers and volunteer mentors
- accredited and non-accredited group work from the Pupil Parent Partnership (PPP) teachers
- family support
- community engagement through volunteering
-
workforce learning and development with specialist communication advisors from I CAN.
