Family workshops for EAL parents and their children

Background - Norwich Opportunity Area Young people in Norwich from disadvantaged backgrounds are less likely than their peers elsewhere in England to leave school with a good level of attainment, go on to study for a level 3 qualification (such as A levels), continue with education or employment from age nineteen, or go to university. Norwich has been identified as an Opportunity Area by the Department for education to address this problem.

This activity is part of the delivery plan. In March 2018 the Norwich Opportunity Area partnership board invited students from Norwich schools to present their solutions to tackle social mobility through the Youth Board.

This proposal is a project presented by the students of Hewett Academy, and considered to be appropriate to supporting the objectives of the OA programme. The deadline for submission is 10am on 31st August 2018. Collaborative applications are welcomed For further information on this project please contact: Jacqueline Bircham, Programme Director Norwich Opportunity Area jacqueline.bircham@newanglia.co.uk tel: 01603 510074
