Post 16 Service
Our Post-16 support service enables vulnerable students or students with SEND to make a smooth and successful transition from school to college or employment. The service not only has excellent success rates for students, it also reduces the number of young people from becoming NEET (Not in Education, Employment or Training) after leaving school.
