Join us for the first in a pair of two FREE webinars for staff working with young people at post-16 in education, training or employment to explore how the learning environment and additional support can be put in place to ensure that staff and students feel confident and secure in their post-16 provision.

The webinars will be split into two:
Webinar 1 – Learning to Access - Ensuring all young people have opportunities to develop their own agency, voice and independence
- Utilising person-centred working to develop access to curriculum and support
- Further understanding of the importance and key steps in transition
