Preparing for Adulthood Training 2024/25

We understand the theory of what good looks like to support young people with SEND and additional needs into a meaningful adult life. In this workshop we will explore how to do this well through the lens of young people by listening to their stories and hearing what worked well for them and what didn’t work so well.

Looking at the four pathways, employment, friends, and relationships, independence and independent living, we will share best practice with you and challenge you to consider what this might mean for your own practice in your local area, and how you work more effectively across education health and care to support and enable young people’s aspirations for their futures.

Sessions are delivered by NDTi and have been co-designed and will be co-delivered with a young person.
