The special educational needs and disability (SEND) section for young people
Special educational needs and disability is often referred to as SEND
This section covers many choices that might help a young person with SEND when leaving school and taking the next step. This can be called transition.
The choices might be:
Further education or higher education; a traineeship or apprenticeship; supported employment; volunteering; how to be involved in the community.
There's also information about day centres, transport, money and the help you might get.
The SEND section might help with some of your questions
but you might want to find out more. There are links from the SEND section to other areas of Help You Choose and other websites. The links will always open in a new page. Close the page to return to the SEND section.
