At West Byfleet Junior School we are committed to supporting Young Carers whose lives may be affected by the role they play in looking after a parent or another family member. We respect them for what they do and we will work hard to ensure they have full access to education and will provide pastoral support in order to relieve them of some of the emotional worries they may have as they perform tasks and responsibilities beyond their age.

 

Please see our attached Young Carers Policy below.
