This is the only option for pre-16s currently on-roll with school and in statutory education (unless eligible for SGS Create). You must discuss this with your school and they will apply on your behalf. A pre-16 cannot apply for this directly. Please refer to the 'Information for Parents' in the Useful Resources section below. Your school will need to read the 'Information for Schools' and 'SGS Flex'.

"Sarah* (age 14) tells us she is very happy and really enjoying the course. We can see she is really engaged, and we are happy she seems to be settling well. (...) she suffered terrible bullying at secondary school, so it is so great for us to know that all is going so well."
