There are many students for whom school is difficult – with many different reasons why. In this supplement, we seek expert advice for how schools can support teenagers who face serious barriers to their education, including those at risk of dropping out all together.

This free 16-page supplement (available as a pdf download by clicking the button below) includes articles from a number of experts as well as inspiring school case studies.

Ultimately, we ask how we might re-engage with these often-vulnerable young people and offer practical advice, ideas and tips for how we can tackle and address a range of different barriers to education.
