Black Holes is a simple but powerful concept designed by the young people of The Warren Youth Project to support schools and colleges across England. Many of us did not have positive experiences in education. Rather than criticising schools, we wanted to create something constructive, caring, and supportive — a way to help school communities better understand young people who may be struggling.
When I was struggling at school, it felt like no one really understood why. Black Holes explains that feeling in a way adults can actually listen to
This project shows what it’s like when education doesn’t work for you. It’s not about blaming schools, it’s about helping them understand students better
Being part of Black Holes made me feel like my experiences mattered. If this helps even one young person get better support, it’s worth it.
At the heart of Black Holes are the young people who created it. Their lived experiences show the real impact of listening, understanding, and inclusive education.
