Case study: Portfield School - Sixth Form - Fenton
The problem
Our team works hard with our young autistic adults in managing the transition from the world of education into the world of employment or study. We help prepare them for life outside of school and encourage them to explore personal independence including an understanding of meal preparation, cleaning, and handling money in different situations outside of the classroom.
At the same time we ensure that their wellbeing is integral to our curriculum – healthy lives and healthy networks and relationships.
The Solution
All autistic people are different, they have the same ambitions and dreams and love fun. We want to ensure our students are given the very best opportunities to realise their full potential as adults and to be recognised for their very special abilities.
