To prepare learners for their next steps, our work focuses on five placement outcomes that inform and guide our curriculum and support.
- Wellbeing
- Communication
- Skills
- Independence
- Employability.
Personal development in each area helps learners to move towards their aspirations and intended destinations post-college.

This is the overarching premise for our which sets out that we will continue to build on our core expertise in education and employability while engaging more than ever before in the other areas that are essential for autistic children and young people to lead fulfilling lives, such as having supportive families and relationships, good health and wellbeing and being active citizens in their communities.
