Homelessness
The definition of homelessness means not having a home.
It includes rough sleeping but can also include those in accommodation which is unsuitable for their needs. You count as homeless if you are:- Staying with friends or family
– Staying in a hostel, night shelter or B&B
– Squatting (because you have no legal right to stay)
– At risk of violence or abuse in your home
– Living in poor conditions that affect your health
– Living apart from your family because you don’t have a place to live together
What we do
– We encourage a good relationship with the parents and carers of our apprentices and encourage them to voice any concerns relating to homelessness
– We review our learners’ welfare via regular reviews
– We involve other agencies if we have concerns
What you will do
– I will recognise if I am at risk of becoming homeless and I will speak to someone and ask for help
– I will talk to someone if my housing situation is causing my physical or mental health to deteriorate
– I know that I can report my concerns to the Safeguarding and Welfare Team at South West Construction Academy Ltd
