Transition/Post-16 provision
In 2010, responsibility and funding for post-16 education passed from the Learning and Skills Council to local authorities. In order to plan and commission post-16 provision for young disabled people, Sheffield City Council set up the "Progress and Achieve" group. We have two parent representatives on this group. You can find out more about the work they do by reading their meeting notes (from September 2011). If you want, you can also post comments and questions.
