Alternative social education care for SEND young people
If you do not want to attend an education setting such as a sixth form, college or specialist college and have special educational needs, you may be interested in an alternative social care setting. These settings can help you to build confidence, learn new skills and become more independent.
You can:
- learn everyday life skills
- try new activities and hobbies
- build friendships and social skills
- gain confidence in new situations
- work towards your personal goals
Activities may include:
- cooking
- crafts
- gardening
- sports
- learning skills for everyday life
Everyone's journey is different. Alternative social care settings can help you learn, grow and take part in activities that are important to you.
To access these services, you will need a social care assessment.
