Support in College
Most colleges will have courses that are designed to help young people with disabilities to improve basic skills, become more confident and try a range of practical courses to find out what they would like to do.
These courses often have titles such as Vocational Preparation.
If you already know what course you want to do but need support the college can apply for funding to put the support in place.
The kind of support that may be on offer can include:
- A person to take notes for you
- A person to read information for you
- Help to organise your work
- A laptop computer
- Help with eating
- Help to get around the college
Talk to your careers adviser about the support that you could get in college.
