SEND Work Experience Programme

LoadingAdd to my saved searches

This contractor has created a 10 week virtual educational activity programme in collaboration with ThinkForward, a special educational needs charity which has been designed with sessions tailored to the individual needs of the students taking part. The contractor suggested that students create ‘passports’ before starting that included learning preferences and individual needs. They then used this as a basis to create the content of the programme.

Sessions include interactive activities and games, ‘specialist speaker’ slots and Q&A’s. The project have also run a pilot session with Wandsworth school, Linden Lodge which provides education for multi-disabled, visually impaired students aged 0-25.

The team were tasked with creating an engaging session without the use of any visual resources. This SEND-focused activity supports the contractors new commitment to helping under-represented groups to access job opportunities as part of their Social Equity Plan.
