If you are a previous student of our school who is interested in telling their story, why don't you get in touch?

The resource covers a number of areas of Prevent and Counter-Extremism, such as:
• What Prevent is
• The Channel process
• How to start difficult conversations with young people and
• Possible indicators of radicalisation in young people, among other topics
The resource is called 'Parents and carers: protecting your child from extremism and radicalisation' and is hosted on Educate Against Hate.
