Independence
Travel Training
The aim of travel training is to help students become more independent. Students learn how to travel safely by foot and using public transport; but we also enjoy trips to the shops and to places like Conisbrough Castle!
We study safe strangers and students are given the opportunity to practice these skills in the wider community.
Living Skills
Students need to develop independence skills for life after college, some students will move to independent or supported living. It is important that students learn the skills to enable this to happen whilst others will become more independent at home.
Financial Awareness
To prepare students to be more independent, they need to be confident when handling money, know where money comes from and also make choices and decisions on how they will spend it. We focus on budgeting, bills involved with running a home and handling money in shops and social events.
