During the month of October 2021, Planet Youth are inviting all Transition Year/ LCA students in Largy College to take part in the Planet Youth survey.
The survey involves filling out an anonymous questionnaire about their lifestyles, behaviours and health. The survey will take about 50 minutes and takes place in a classroom setting.
An information leaflet about the survey can be found below. We would be grateful if you would consider reading this letter in full.
At the end of the leaflet, you can indicate whether you do not wish your young person to take part. If you do not want your young person to take part in the survey, please return this signed form to your young person’s school.
If we do not hear from you, we will assume that you agree to your young person taking part in the survey.
As part of the Planet Youth program, we will send home a leaflet on local services that might be able to help your young person if they are experiences any difficulties identified in the survey.

Home, School, Community Liaison Scheme
The underlying policy of the Home, School, Community Liaison Scheme, (HSCL) is one that seeks to promote partnership between parents and teachers. The purpose of this partnership is to enhance pupils’ learning opportunities and to promote their retention in the education system. In addition, the HSCL Scheme places great emphasis on collaboration with the local community. It fosters a sense of trust between the students, the parents and the school.
The five goals of the HSCL Scheme focus on
• promoting co-operation between home, school, and community
• empowering parents
• retaining young people in the education system
• supporting marginalised pupils
• disseminating best practice.
