- Swalwell Primary School only shares information with professionals and agencies on a need to know basis in order to support pupils and their families.
- Swalwell Primary School actively seeks feedback and ideas from young carers and their families to shape and improve support.
- Swalwell Primary School uses Pupil Premium funding to minimise any barriers to education and learning experienced by eligible young carers.
- Swalwell Primary School has an effective referral system and strong partnership in place with relevant external agencies, including the school nurse and the local young carers’ service.
