Youth Work and the Welsh Curriculum

This toolkit is designed to support youth workers in Wales to understand, engage with, and complement the Curriculum for Wales. It recognises the unique role of youth work as a form of informal, relationship-based education that supports young people’s holistic development and contributes to the four purposes of the curriculum.

Developed through Youth Cymru’s Taith Pathway 2 project and informed by practice across Wales, the UK, and Ireland, this resource brings together insights from organisations including Youth Work Ireland, YouthAction Northern Ireland, Youth Scotland, and UK Youth. It reflects a growing national and international focus on strengthening collaboration between formal and informal education.
