Learn Your Way is a post 16 programme of study for young people funded by Adult Education aged 16-24 and who have an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP).
Running for 7 years Learn Your Way is a Post 16 programme of study which understands the needs of learners who have an EHCP. We believe that with the right support and encouragement young people can achieve a qualification, build their skills and confidence, make friends and progress onto even better things!
Work Your Way is a programme where we work with young adults with an ECHP to prepare them for working life. The programme consists of 3 days per week.
Work Your Way is a small, bespoke provision that is suitable for young people who require additional support to find, access and maintain work placements that could lead to employment.
We deliver a Work Experience and a Supported Internship programme. The focus is enabling young people to access placements with one to one support provided if required. We work alongside local employers finding opportunities that meet your individual skills and aspirations. Each programme develops young people’s confidence and supports their ability to travel independently and effectively work with others with the opportunity to succeed in the workplace.
Work Experience
Work Experience is designed to bridge the gap between education and the world of work. Learners have the opportunity to follow a flexible course in a supportive and relaxed environment.
Supported Internship
A supported internship is a structured programme where the student is based primarily with an external employer for an extended work placement, facilitated by the support of a job coach. Ideally you have an idea of what type of work you want to do prior to starting this programme in order to get the most out of it.

I was very anxious before I started the course, the course has helped me a lot, my value is recognised and has taught me a lot of things.

I now understand and have learnt life skills, I was very anxious before I started the course – now my confidence has greatly improved and I value attending the course, a very positive experience, it is so different compared to my experiences at college.
