What Next... Information for care leavers and young people in care

VIRTUAL SCHOOL CiC

A guide to the support available in further

education

2



Forward

This resource has been put together to support young people, their carers, school and social worker to make choices about ‘What’s Next…?’ when year 11 comes to an end at school. There are many choices to make regarding the future: to stay in education to gain more qualifications or enter the working world? This can be based on a career ambition, a subject enjoyment or other circumstances affecting this decision. Whatever the choice, it will bring opportunities, a chance to develop new skills, gain more confidence and meet new people.

It is important to start the conversation about post 16 options early; the earlier we start this conversation to talk about things the young person is good at, enjoys and what they want to do for a living, the better prepared they will be to make the right choices.

Adults can offer support to young people about to leave school by:

• Taking the time to understand and alleviate any fears.

• Reassuring them that there is support and they will not be on their own (whether this is about money or study support).

• Encouraging them to attend taster days and open days – if possible go with them!

• Encouraging them to talk to named contacts to find out more.

• Keeping in touch once they start a post 16 pathway – they will still require support and a friendly face.

The aim of this resource is to detail what post 16 providers can offer care leavers and young people in care when they opt for their post 16 provision. The booklet is designed in an easy to use format in the style of a directory; this is so you can see at a glance the specific support the provider can offer and a named contact.

We hope that you find this resource useful in supporting young people in care and care leavers with their post 16 options.
