Adeel Gets Key Qualifications With The Help Of Sheffield City Trust And Street League

Adeel has serious learning and behavioural issues which have affected him throughout his life. He never engaged at school and left with no qualifications, and had no idea of what he would like to do with his future.

The lack of guidance and family support was evident as Adeel had very limited social skills.

He found out about Street League through a friend that was already attending and decided to join our programme, he undertook his initial assessments. A suitable scheme of work was put in place and with support, he successfully achieved his Level 1 Employability and Entry 3 FS Maths & English qualifications.

He attended a work placement at the U-Mix centre helping develop his employability skills further and has since secured full time work in a fast food establishment! Adeel is doing really well and feels really proud that he is earning his own money and being independent.

Adeel stated “that the belief instilled into me by the staff at Street League has been so important as previously all the feedback I got at school was negative. I am much more confident and have a much higher level of self-esteem. My friends and family treat me with a lot more respect.”
