Teachers and Mentors

Leon Holland BSc, P.G.C.E.

​

I gained my P.G.C.E in 2017 and previously obtained a 1st Class degree in Social Science in 2016 which was the underpinning for this project. The programs have been developed from my experiences and understanding of complex social issues that i gained throughout my time working in social and educational facilities. Working closely with Youth Offending Teams, Youth Justice agencies and  Cornwall Mental Health Teams my experiences are varied whilst understanding from multi agency and T.A.C (team around a child) is extensive. My employment history is in agencies such as St Petroc's, Positive Accommodation and Support (P.A.S) and within privately established children's residential and educational projects such as Mount Hawke Edusk8, Fifteen Cornwall and Connextions. I have also gained NVQ 3 in Children and Young People during my time as a youth worker, as well as making a short film with Kandu Arts based on the experiences of leavers from care, advised on the Fifteen Cornwall and given key speeches at The Eden project and Cornwall College.
