Unaccompanied asylum seeker children

Specialist information for supporting unaccompanied asylum seeker children.

Free training to support schools in supporting refugee and asylum-seeking children and young people

The Healing Classrooms programme from International Rescue Committee (IRC) aims to support schools and educators to develop inclusive and nurturing learning spaces where refugee and asylum-seeking students can gain the necessary academic, social and emotional skills to develop their full potential.

The IRC offers free training sessions and resources to educators and schools supporting refugee and asylum-seeking students in the UK.

Whether or not you have accompanied or unaccompanied asylum-seeking and refugee children at your school, we encourage all schools to participate in this training which will support you in working with those who have experienced considerable trauma and loss.
