Positive Youth Foundation
We’ve been working in Coventry since 1997, offering a range of programmes for young people across the city. We are a registered charity, established with the purpose of supporting young people to achieve their full potential.
The service has a strong strategic representation across a number of policy objectives including health, education and community engagement. We deliver developmental programmes, taking positive approaches to help young people experiencing challenging circumstances move forward in their lives.
Programmes are designed to support young people to thrive, regardless of the challenges they face. Our ethos is based upon a strong shared commitment to reaching young people where they are, building relationships of respect and trust, and supporting young people to succeed.
Embracing influences from the sport, youth work and criminal justice sectors to improve personal, social and community development outcomes, with the purposeful intention to change, rather than simply ‘manage’, young people’s behaviour.
Functional Skills qualifications are key to building foundations for learners to progress into their specialist skillsets. These subjects are a vital part of the entry/exit requirement for vocational study, apprenticeships, and traineeships. Positioned as an alternative to the GCSE route, Functional Skills offer learners a vocational pathway into English and Maths with the flexibility to sit their assessment all year round.
We deliver qualifications from entry level through to Level 2; young people will complete an initial assessment to assess their level and then works towards a qualification in English and Maths.
