21st Century Child
Young people are experiencing new challenges every day. Sandwell’s 21st Century Child Programme is a two tier approach, working with both young people and parents/carers.
The 6 – 8 week programme allows young people to have their voices heard on topics that are important to them and then bring change and awareness inside and outside of school.
Young people identify a topic after consulting with their peers and parents/carers. Throughout the sessions the young people discuss what they already know, what they need to find out, where support is available to them both in and outside of school and how they want to present this to peers and school.
This interactive programme provides an interactive way to help develop an understanding about the risks associated with being a 21st Century Child.
