Zayn has learning difficulties and has been bullied by other members of his class in the past. As a result he has become very isolated and doesn’t appear to have many friends at school.

A Safe Space – Additional slides Prevent case study When asked why he wanted to travel to Syria by his teacher he said that he needed to learn to fight to ‘ help his brothers and sisters who are being murdered ’. The school had a meeting with Zayn’s mum who admitted that she was finding it difficult to care for her son. She left her husband a few months ago because he used to beat her. Zayn’s mother told the school that Zayn found it hard to be away from his father and that he is spending an increasing amount of time on his computer.
