Education and training pathways

Many young people with SEND will attend mainstream education or training provision. However, they are entitled to extra support to help them fulfil their potential. Support can include a range of things, such as transport, extra help with learning (e.g. from teaching assistants), extra time in exams, a laptop and other help with physical tasks or personal care.

SEND young people progressing into higher education (university), may be entitled to Disabled Students’ Allowances.

For information on mainstream education and training pathways, please see our young people page.
