Transitions into colleges/adult services
The bespoke individualised package that each pupil receives is tailored to prepare them for the next steps, whether it is re-integration into mainstream education, college, employment, living locally, living in home areas or living independently. The school sets, reviews and refines objectives in conjunction with all stakeholders, to optimise the success and smoothness of transitions.
