Planning and preparation
This page can help you think about what you might want to do when you leave school
This can be an exciting time but also a confusing time if you're not sure what to do next. There are lots of people that can help. And it's important that you're part of any planning that takes place.
People that can help
Parents or other family members and friends.
Teachers - if you're at school or college. Ask to speak to the special educational needs coordinator (SENCO) or the careers teacher/careers adviser.
The leader of an activity or hobby you do might have good advice.
Norfolk County Council or an independent provider.
