Leanne’s story

Leanne is bright, bubbly, ambitious and it is hard to believe that she struggled to fit into school.... and that her school struggled wth her! Before she came to the Surrey Care Trust's Woking Learning Centre at the age of 14 she was so disruptive her teachers had found her almost impossible to educate.

Her time on our STEPS Under 16s programme transformed her attitude and her self-confidence.

A real breakthrough for Leanne was spending a day a week back at her old school, mentoring younger students who were disaffected and disruptive and at risk of wasting their school years.

“I have been given a second chance and I am going to make the most of it,” she said.

She worked consistently and conscientiously while at STEPS and moved on to train as a hairdresser. She keeps in touch and is doing well. She recently bought herself a car. Her ambition is to work for a London salon, perhaps one day owning her own business.
