COMING SOON!
Your Future will be evolving into a Supported Internship offer from April 2025.
Supported internships are a structured, work-based study programme for 16 to 25-year-olds with SEND who have an education, health and care plan (EHCP).
The internships are designed to help you get ready for work by giving you hands-on experience, skills training and support in the workplace. A job coach will support you during your time at work.
Your work placement is created alongside a bespoke study programme with On Course South West, including English and Maths and other subjects that will help you to gain the skills to secure paid employment in the future.
