Pillar 3 - Becoming an adult

Find out what we are doing to provide more opportunities for children and young people with SEND when they reach 16.

The report said the range of opportunities and choices for children and young people with SEND when they reach 16 was poor and needed improving.

The actions we will take include:

  • Embedding traineeships, supporting internships, apprenticeships and school leaver schemes – and setting targets for the number of young people taking them up – to increase the number of young people with SEND in education, training or employment once they have left school or college

  • Seeking out Education, Health and Care (EHC) plans that have worked well to share and widen good practice.
