Safeguarding & Inclusion

Safe, inclusive spaces for young people to learn and create.

Safeguarding and inclusion are central to how Urban Education CIC plans and delivers music, sport and educational activities.

Our approach

Every young person deserves to feel supported.

We work with schools, youth organisations, alternative education providers and community partners to create engaging environments where young people can take part safely and confidently.

Our activities can be adapted to participants' ages, abilities and individual needs, including SEND and alternative provision settings. We discuss practical and safeguarding arrangements with commissioning organisations before delivery.
