JUNIOR YIP (YOUTH INCLUSION PROGRAMME) is a targeted early intervention and transition project working with 40 identified children and young people aged 8 – 13 at risk.

We aim to support the young people in their transition from primary school to secondary school and also aim to support young people who have barriers to learning, are engaged in or at risk of anti social behaviour, educational and social exclusion. The project offers a weekly structured delivery programme which includes discussions around topical issues identified by the young people, positive activities, half term provision and an annual residential.

Other work at JYIP

The project also works within primary schools delivering PSHE. Working in partnership with the London Fire Brigade, Youth Inclusion Support Panel, Police, Red Cross and R U OK, JYIP have played a pivotal role in delivering a Citizenship programme The Junior Impact Factor. The programme aims to provide information, advice and guidance for pupils making their transition from primary to secondary school.

As a collective since February 2008 JYIP have worked with nearly 1100 young people in primary schools through the JIF programme.
