Detached Youth Work

Description

A tendering exercise will be advertised and run in line with the Procurement Act 2023. It is envisaged to set up an Open Framework Agreement (Framework) for the provision of a School Navigator Programme and Detached Youth Work. The Framework includes two separate lots: • Lot 1: School and Community Navigator Programme The School and Community Navigator Programme is an initiative aimed at providing tailored support to young people within schools and extended to the local community. It is a preventative programme to engage with children who are showing first signs of disengagement from education, through to those considered at risk of exclusion, whether this be behavioural issues within lessons or during the school day, truancy, absenteeism, history of suspension etc. Navigators will work within both primary and secondary education establishments. There will be a particular focus on identifying and engaging with Year 6 pupils and supporting them with their preparation for secondary school. • Lot 2: Detached Youth Work Detached youth work is one way of offering a service to potentially vulnerable and 'at risk' young people which takes place in their own communities. Detached youth work is therefore delivered on the streets, in areas where there is an identified need with delivery being flexible dependent on the young people. The overall aim of detached youth work is to make contact with young people and positively influence their lives by engaging them in an exciting and challenging programme of informal social education. This work takes place in places where young people choose to meet, away from traditional youth work venues.
