The aim of this tool kit is not to give a comprehensive view of youth work - that can be obtained from other more relevant publications. What you will get is an honest perspective from youth workers in the field on the difficulties and successes of youth work in schools today. The toolkit is specific to youth work that happens in schools and is derived from the knowledge and skills of youth workers who have taken part in the Youth Work and Schools Partnership Programme in Wales. What is does aim to do is to deal with the practical issues of working in a formal education structure or along side it offering an alternative curriculum, based on youth work methods of delivery.
