School Assemblies

Empower your students

The aim of a Renaissance Foundation assembly is to raise awareness of young carers and those with health conditions among students. We hope this may encourage some to consider issues relating directly to themselves for the first time and seek support where needed whilst creating a safe environment at your school where everyone feels accepted for who they are.

Outcomes 

  • Students who are not already identified as young carers will understand if they are a young carer and how to get support.  

  • Students will learn the barriers and challenges faced by young carers and those with health conditions. 

  • By raising awareness, students will gain insight into how these young people may feel and create a more accepting and understanding environment at school where everyone can feel safe and accepted for who they are.

FAQs about free school assemblies

  • We try to tailor the length to fit in with your school timetable, but we recommend around 20-25 minutes.

  • The assembly can be delivered to any secondary school year group (we can also work with Y6s upon request) and are designed to include all students, not just those eligible to take part in the Renaissance Foundation programme.

  • All we need is access to a screen or somewhere we can share our presentation. Renaissance Foundation staff will bring their own equipment and can discuss this with a member of school staff ahead of the visit.

  • We are all fully DBS checked and are happy to bring a copy of our DBS when we visit your school.
