This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament

Petition Ofsted inspections should specifically include school support for Young Carers.

Ofsted should be specifically reviewing the process and support given by schools to support Young Carers. Many Young Carers are hidden but, with support and knowledge that schools could provide, this can change. Being a Young Carer can be challenging sometimes affecting the young person's education.
