Grenfell Recovery Strategy

Since September 2021, a new project has been in place to promote inclusion and tackle school exclusions in North Kensington. The pilot project aims to promote inclusion and tackle school exclusions by:

• embedding trauma-informed workers in primary and secondary schools in North Kensington to support pupils, families and the school community.
• providing specialist advice and advocacy on education-based matters for parents and carers, working with the local voluntary and community sector and other key partners.
• offering child focused trauma informed practice training to schools and community providers.

We have been closely monitoring the reach and impact of the pilot programme by reviewing regularly the number of children and young people supported in each school and monitoring key indicators of progress, including exclusion rates and educational outcomes.

If you have questions about the project or want to know how to access the support, you can email [email protected]

Please note, from September 2024, the programme embedding trauma-informed workers in primary and secondary schools will extend to schools in the south of the borough. The support will be renamed the Early Help School Inclusion Programme.
