The Mayor should use the adult skills budget to develop a specific education and skills programme in West Yorkshire to support the integration of young refugees.
Lucy Lucy (CAY) - Education and skills training for young refugees has been tried by various schemes in the past and I would want to look at their specific successes/ difficulties before identifying a particular route for this. In my experience one of the main difficulties refugees experience in finding the right courses and the right employment opportunities is that they have insufficient general knowledge of how systems in UK work, and no contacts, and this puts them at an extreme disadvantage
