MA SOCIOLOGY OF CHILDHOOD AND CHILDREN'S RIGHTS, UCL IOE

I hope to fulfil my goals and passion for child safety and development through delving into the rights and policies required for young people to flourish as active and valued members of society.

Having worked as an educator within a predominantly British Muslim school, I understand the struggles young British Muslims face and the support they need. Through holding a safeguarding position, I have worked with external social welfare agencies, supported parents/carers and mentored vulnerable students. I am also a member of a fostering panel for a British Muslim owned agency specialising in the fostering of children with complex medical needs, mental health issues and disabilities.

These experiences have furthered my understanding of the issues British Muslims grapple with and what they need to navigate their way through arising challenges in our ever-changing world.
