Learn - Aspire - Thrive - Achieve
Welcome to the Cambridgeshire Virtual School podcast! Our vision is that all children who have or have had a social worker, including children in care and children previously in care, are enabled to learn, aspire, thrive and achieve. Hosted by our very own team alongside those with lived and learned experiences, we consider how to maximise opportunity to ensure full educational potential is reached. We explore factors affecting the educational journeys of the children we support and how some of the typical barriers faced by this cohort of children can be minimised.
