Transition Support

Specialist support across major transitions — primary to secondary, KS4 to post-16, and into adulthood.

Who it's for

Young people approaching a significant educational or life transition where regression risk is high.

How it works

Transition is where progress is most often lost. We plan transitions over months, not weeks: visiting future settings, building familiarity, rehearsing routines and supporting the receiving team to hold the work we have done.

What the placement looks like

  1. 01

    Map

    Transition mapped backwards from the move date — usually 3 to 6 months out.

  2. 02

    Familiarise

    Visits, photo books and rehearsal of routines with the receiving setting.

  3. 03

    Hand over

    Receiving team briefed on profile, triggers and what works.

Outcomes we work towards

  • A confident, well-rehearsed transition
  • Reduced regression post-move
  • Continuity of relationship through the change

Evidence we share with commissioners

  • Transition plan with milestones
  • Receiving-setting handover pack
  • Post-transition six-week check in
