Supported Internships

Supported internships help students aged 16 to 24 with SEND and an EHCP to achieve sustainable, paid employment or volunteering whilst giving them confidence to know they will achieve with hard work and determination.

Students will refresh all those fundamental skills necessary for the workplace, they will be given advice on how to apply for jobs and create an effective CV that is adaptable for the workplace.

Students will work with our job coaches and find placements in line with their strengths and interests.  They will have initial placement support from the job coaches and will participate in an unpaid work placement for at least six months.  Students will also be given travel training if necessary to support them to get to their work placements independently.
