Preparing for adulthood is an exciting yet sometimes uncertain time, especially for young people with special educational needs or disabilities (SEND) who may require extra support. This transition involves new opportunities, choices, and growing independence. It is crucial that young people with SEND and their families are actively involved in planning and decision-making to achieve the best possible outcomes for their future.

Transition planning, which begins from Year 9, focuses on tailoring support to individual needs, hopes, and aspirations. Whether you have an Education Health and Care plan (EHC plan, often referred to as EHCP) or receive SEN support, reviews and plans are designed to guide you toward adulthood.
