The I2A programme works with those young people that are identified under the Youth Engagement and Progression Framework as ‘at risk’ of disengagement from school and engages them in positive activities and sessions within the school environment.
The programme delivers joint partnership work between Careers Wales and the Vale of Glamorgan Council. The project works closely with other stakeholders, in particular the Vale of Glamorgan’s Education department.
One to one youth work support: the level of work will depend on need. The young person will work towards a wide variety of accredited learning opportunities, minimum Entry 1 threshold that are recognised on the Qualifications and Credits Framework (QCF). The programme will include a pre-assessment, an introduction, mid-point measure depending on the type of intervention, evaluation to monitor outcomes, and distance travelled from the young person’s and youth worker’s perspectives
Group support consisting of 6-8 most vulnerable young people: Bespoke programme developed to meet the needs of the group. This may include personal finance, managing budget, developing confidence, self-awareness and emotional intelligence. Groups will be offered the opportunity to complete accredited learning opportunities, minimum Entry 1 threshold that are recognised on the Qualifications and Credits Framework (QCF)
Due to the funding requirements of the project, referrals can only be made by the school following identification as high risk and a panel meeting.
The I2A project is part of a larger operation across a total of four local authorities, Careers Wales, Cardiff and Vale College (CAVC) and Coleg Gwent.
