Young carers at school

The Princess Royal Trust for Carers, in partnership with The Children's Society, has produced Supporting Young Carers, a resource to help schools across the UK to develop a deeper understanding of the issues faced by young carers in order to support this vulnerable group of pupils more effectively.

"Young carers are supported more effectively through collaborative work amongst all staff... so please work hand-in-hand with your colleagues to utilise the ideas and to create and implement your action plans for young carers."
