“It’s impossible, with a conscience, to ignore the challenges in society.” – John Barneby FRSA, CEO of Oasis Community Learning. At Oasis, we believe schools are more than just places of learning – they are the heart of the community. Our school-based hubs provide opportunities for our young people and families, offering everything from mental health support and career advice to safe spaces and free meals. Through our work, we’ve seen first-hand how youth hubs can transform lives. Oasis Academy MediaCityUK, for example, provided 18,000 meals to the local community in one school year alone, helping to boost school attendance and build stronger connections with families. As Labour’s 'Young Futures' programme looks to roll out youth hubs across the UK, we’re proud to lead the way. Could our model be the foundation for Sure Start 2.0? We think so. Let’s continue building communities where every child and family can thrive. Read more about our hubs in this Schools Week piece - https://lnkd.in/ebQ4_xeQ

Results Day is just around the corner! 🎓📅 Our new blog offers valuable tips on managing stress and staying positive during times of uncertainty. While this can be an anxious time for students, it is also a reminder for all of us that the results we receive- whether in exams, work, or life- do not define our worth. Whether you're awaiting exam results, a job interview outcome, or any other significant life event, remember that there are always options and new opportunities ahead. Embrace the journey, learn from the experience, and keep moving forward! Read more in our latest blog here: https://bit.ly/3WBaYhW #ResultsDay #SelfCare #Positivity #Resilience #GrowthMindset
