-
When a child has a statement of special needs it must be reviewed annually.
-
The Annual Review in Year 9 and following annual reviews until the young person leaves school, must include the drawing up and reviewing of a Transition Plan.
-
The Transition Plan brings together all the necessary information to plan for a young person‘s move into adult life.
-
Transition Plans should not only include post-school arrangements, they should also plan for on-going help in school as identified in the statement of special educational needs.
-
The drawing up of the Transition Plan must involve Careers Wales and should also involve parents and other agencies with a major role in the young person‘s post-school life e.g. Social Services and Health Professionals.
