Youth Social Action Resource Hub

Young Enterprise help teachers to widen opportunities for young people.

EtonX offers courses to help students hone their academic, communication, and leadership skills, as well as prepare themselves for university and career success.

Young people identify people in their lives who are ‘hidden heroes’ – those people who go the extra mile every day and expect nothing in return, never seeking accolades.
In this video, the young people are face-to-face with their hidden heroes so that they can tell them what makes them extra special. The hidden heroes then respond.
These hidden heroes are all role models in their own right, showing the young people that they too can make a positive difference in the world and enrich others’ lives.

Race-based hair discrimination has been illegal in the UK since the 2010 Equalities Act, yet it still happens in schools. Black students may internalize Eurocentric beauty standards and be told that their hair textures and hairstyles are inappropriate or unattractive. The Equality & Human Rights Commission is monitoring the situation. However schools and young people can take action, such as signing up to the UK’s first Black hair code, The Halo Collective’s Halo Code. By adopting this, schools are taking a stand to ensure that no member of their community faces barriers or judgements because of their Afro-textured hair.
