At Queen Elizabeth’s, we recognise that some students carry caregiving responsibilities at home. We are committed to ensuring every young person enjoys equal access to education, regardless of their personal circumstances.

When a student helps care for a family member living with a disability, physical or mental health condition, or addiction, tailored support can help them thrive academically and personally. Our school is attentive to these unique experiences and provides a compassionate, encouraging environment for students balancing extra duties at home.

We proudly collaborate with the MYTIME Young Carers to connect our young carers with vital support, enriching activities, and opportunities to connect with peers. Partnering with MYTIME plays an essential role in helping our young carers achieve their full potential alongside their classmates.

If your child fulfils a caring role, please reach out to our Young Carers Lead to discover how we can best support your family:
