Young Carers in School (YCiS)
Run jointly by Carers Trust and The Children’s Society, the Young Carers in Schools (YCiS) programme works with schools across England to share good practice, provide relevant tools and training, and celebrate the great outcomes many schools achieve for young carers.

The list of local schools and education providers involved with the programme is growing all the time, and we are proud to be working with the Sefton schools listed below who have achieved the award:
