No meeting. No name taken.

I was a young person needing support, possibly even flagged up as vulnerable on the system. But I wasn\u00e2\u0080\u0099t taken seriously. The trust had been broken.\n\nOnly saving grace was a teacher in Religious Studies Mr O\u00e2\u0080\u0099Keefe (can\u00e2\u0080\u0099t remember his first name) excellent excellent teacher. I went on to study philosophy with applied psychology and I still have a keen interest in all the topics he taught! He\u00e2\u0080\u0099ll never see this but I feel bad for never having thanked him before I left. It was always a good day when I had his classes.\n\nIf you are a parent or a young person who is a young carer, from a care background, needing mental health support or financial advise try tell a friend or adult and book an appointment with the service you need and make sure this person attends with you. Take any and all paperwork to support. Don\u00e2\u0080\u0099t let them deny, demand it. It\u00e2\u0080\u0099s literally their job.\nIn my experience outside of this institute, you get taken much more seriously with a witness or advocate. Try do this within the first month of attending and do this even if you don\u00e2\u0080\u0099t immediately require support. Flagging yourself up should help if and when you do need the support. And it\u00e2\u0080\u0099s best to express this at a time when you\u00e2\u0080\u0099re able to. If you are struggling it can be more difficult to clearly express your needs and rectify a situation. Unfortunately if you\u00e2\u0080\u0099ve experienced any of the issues I\u00e2\u0080\u0099ve mentioned you\u00e2\u0080\u0099ll understand trusted trained professionals who are meant to know more than you regarding said issues, sometimes just don\u00e2\u0080\u0099t. And if they deny or simply don\u00e2\u0080\u0099t offer the correct support you may be inclined to accept the situation believing they are meant to be the informed party advising you correctly. So do take these steps as soon as you join so you will have more clarity to tackle and organise it all first yourself.\nInform your form tutor of your situations and past situations. If they leave make sure you inform your next tutor.\n\nIt\u00e2\u0080\u0099s a lot of work for a young person having to repeat themselves but even if you don\u00e2\u0080\u0099t need any support it\u00e2\u0080\u0099s best to future proof it all yourself.\n\nFriends, family, carers and service staff maybe helping a young person with their further education make sure you genuinely support your young people! They seem like mini adults but it\u00e2\u0080\u0099s a complicated world and do as much as you can for them while you can!
