The issue also features students from the Funky Skills Summer Challenge on the front cover. The story inside overviews the success a group of young people had during the summer of 2008 when working with our Delivery team. The young people, mainly Looked After (LAC) or from the Pupil Referral Unit (PRU) in Coventry, worked together on a range of challenges to help them progress in life. ASDAN’s Wider Key Skills was used to accredit their learning and between them the young people gained over 50 GCSE equivalent qualifications!
