- Creating a safe and consistent environment for engagement.
- Encouraging participation through interests-led activities and discussion.
- Gradually reducing anxieties associated with education and learning.
- Introducing academic content at a pace that feels comfortable and achievable for Q.
- Delivery Arrangements
- Up to 10 hours per week, although hours may need to be introduced gradually depending on Q's tolerance and engagement levels.
- Sessions are expected to take place within the local community.
