Can't find school for young mums

I've been reading about schools for young mums, and I really like the idea of it. I'd like more qualifications so I can get a better job and earn money for my baby! but I can't find one, or information about things like that ANYWHERE near where I live. Does anybody have any information about them/where I can find one or other options? Or live in the Leeds/Bradford area that go to one! x

  • Hi @Ameliamajors I went to a young mum's school and it really was a great experience to be with other girls in my situation or similar! I would try speaking to your midwife and see if she knows of any nearby. Unfortunately there may be area restrictions or might not even be any near you. I hope you find one though!!! xxx

  • Hiya, a young mum's school isn't the only option. I finished school about a month after I had my daughter and went to college the next year (which i'm finding a bit difficult but i love it). The government do a cere2learn scheme which covers child care costs whilst your at school/college which makes life alot easier. Hope this helps :) x

  • I Dont Live Near That Area But I Got To A LIDMET Centre Where I Study My Main Subjects, Maths,English And Sciene Its Great, Better Than School To Be Honest Because You Get More Help So You Understand The Work Better, I Aint Been There Long And I Have An Exam Next Week And They Have Really Helped With Doin It. Not Only That I Go To A Place Called The YDC I Am Doing A Course Towards College So Im Studyin Hair And Beauty . See If You Have Any Of These Near You, The Best Way To See About The LIDMET Group Is To Get Hold Of An ISL Worker. Hope This Helps xx
