  Alex Fox, the head of young carers development at the trust, says that many young carers have only one parent and no other support.Often the parent has alcohol or drug problems and the child hides his or her responsibilities from school and even friends.
  ...
  Fox says that the Government's approach and guidance is in the right vein, but it needs to be taken up by services on the ground.The Princess Royal Trust tried, but failed, to add an amendment to the Education and Inspections Bill last year requiring school governors to nominate a designated person in each school to help young carers.
  
  "Often teachers are ignorant of child carers' responsibilities, and when they continually miss school, class them as truants.These children then often fail in their education and are unable to get proper jobs," says Fox.
  ...
  Fox says that although most young carers take on these burdens out of love, they often have to cope with guilt and would not choose to spend their childhood playing the role of a parent.

  Alex Fox, young carers' coordinator with the Princess Royal Trust for Carers, emphasises the need to raise awareness among staff.
  ...
  Fox adds that young carers may also have social problems. "They're missing out on a normal childhood. While their friends are thinking about getting the latest trainers, these children are worrying about doing the shopping and paying the bills. They may present to adults as being very mature, but this can mean they have difficulty relating to their peers. They can be isolated and bullied." He also emphasises that schools need to forge links with local authority or voluntary-sector young carers projects in their area - it was the local "Carers in Hertfordshire" project that provided the impetus for the initiative at Marriotts.

  Alex Fox, Director of Policy and Communications at The Princess Royal Trust for Carers, who led the drafting of the report says: "The participants came from a wide range of perspectives but they all agreed on the need for us to stop focusing on how the system can be better at what it does now.

  Alex Fox, Director of Policy and Communications with The Princess Royal Trust for Carers welcomed the proposals. "We are pleased to see that the green paper recognises the unfairness of the current system for carers and acknowledges that, given the commitment of families, they should no longer have to take on an unreasonable caring role".
  
  Fox emphasises: "The green paper highlights the importance of delivering the National Carers Strategy as part of a fairer system, however," he warns, "it does less to reassure carers that they will no longer find themselves contributing unsustainable high levels of care, whilst at the same time, finding themselves contributing significant financial resources against the cost of care".
  
  Fox notes: "We are one of the few countries in Western Europe which gives families less the more that carers provide. We have to find ways of valuing the contributions of carers properly if we are to continue to rely on carers for an increasing amount of our national care services".
  
  Fox concludes: "The Trust is determined to help the most isolated and overlooked carers take part in the big care debate which the paper calls for".

  Alex Fox, assistant director at The Princess Royal Trust for Carers, says that it can often be quite difficult for teachers to pick up when pupils are acting as young carers, and by the time many get referred to a carers' service or organisation for help and support, it is often too late.
  
  "The signs are quite difficult to spot," he says, "but they can include irregular patterns of absence, late homework without application or someone who is bullied.
  ...
  Fox says: "Most young carers don't get the support that they need, and some often drop out of school altogether as relationships can break down.We know that some young carers get bullied because other children get to learn of the condition of the people they're caring for."
  
  Sarah Jane says: "I did get bullied at primary school, and as I got older the same people were bullying my mum but they were bullying me first to get to my mum."
  
  Fox says that his organisation, like others, believes that no young person should have to take on a caring role in the first place, and "in an ideal world" parents would have access to adequate community support.
  
  Sarah Jane says that she has received very little support outside school, and the support she has received has not come from social services.
  
  "We had a lady from Crossroads [a charity caring for carers] who came in once a week to help with the bathing, and still does, but my support all came from young carers' organisations," she says, including The Children's Society.
  
  Alex says: "Realistically, though, there will always be young carers as some families will always find it difficult to access support.
