Section 2: My Views
(Complete with or on behalf of young person prior to PEP meeting. Use young person’s own words wherever possible. Sheets are available from CLG to help with this process.)
What I like about school is:
That I have some good friends who I see every day and we get on well. I am getting to learn all I need to go to college, especially maths and English. I respect my teachers in lessons. My Childcare course at college is also going well and I enjoy attending.
I get on well with Miss Smith and I like helping other people out when they have problems.
Some things I do really well at school are:
I am doing well in English and maths; I am now putting a lot more effort into these as I know they are very important. I am going to extra maths at lunchtime with Mr Punton.
I am good at art and enjoy this. In media I am ahead of where I need to be, the same is happening for ICT, so I am really pleased with myself.
I have school worries about:
My main worry is my exams that are approaching. I will ask my teachers for support if I feel I am struggling, but I know they will help me. I know I need to pass them to be able to go to college. I am looking to attend college or get an apprenticeship when I leave Elm Bank Academy.
Section 3 – Plans for the Future
What would the young person like to do in the future? (Include longer term aspirations and steps towards)
Rodney would like to get an apprenticeship and study childcare as he feels this would be the best route for him to get to university to study children’s law. Rodney would also like to go to College maybe in the evenings to get more qualifications to again help him achieve his long term goal of helping other children.
Are there any barriers to the achievement of the young person’s aspirations?
Rodney stays after school for additional support. He receives extra support in his English lessons.
Rodney is not academically a high flyer though he does work very hard. He will need considerable support for him to achieve the grades he required to move into a successful KS5. He will also need to be supported through the transition process, so he is aware and has the intervention he requires when working at Level 3. Rodney is very well motivated to do well and achieve his goals.
What can be put in place to help the young person achieve their aspirations? (In most cases add short and long term goals)
Rodney will need extra support for his Maths and English. LACES have been contacted about extra tuition for him in English. Rodney will be having more support in these subjects in school. He is also attending extra maths revision at lunch times in school.
Rodney has been highlighted as a student needing specific support for his transition from KS4 to KS5 to work with CSWP. He will also have an interview with our school’s career advisor. Arthur Morris (LAC Co-ordinator) will liaise with both careers advisors (CSWP and school) to make sure that Rodney is receiving the correct level of support. The support will specifically look at apprenticeships and potential college courses. Rodney will need specific academic support throughout his KS5 courses so he can achieve his aspirations. Any future apprenticeship or college placement will be notified of his needs.
Short term goals are:
Rodney understands in order to achieve his GCSE’s he will need to work hard. Rodney wants to get an apprenticeship as he hopes to be staying with his carers until 18 or chooses to leave after that time. If he cannot get an apprenticeship place Rodney will look to gain a place at college.
Long term goals are:
Rodney hopes to do a child care apprenticeship or work in a nursery with a view to studying law at University to be a child solicitor. He knows that he will have to study hard for this to happen, but is well motivated to achieve this. Rodney wants to help other children who have had problems with their families.
