ASDAN specialises in supporting young people to develop the skills and qualities to learn for life. With a wealth of knowledge of the SEND landscape, they are highly experienced in working with expert practitioners to create transition programmes that help young people prepare for adulthood.
My Independence is ASDAN’s flagship provision for SEND learners working from pre-Entry level to Entry level 3, with learning difficulty levels ranging from moderate to profound and multiple.
Suite of four programmes
The suite of four certificated programmes has been designed around the four preparing-for-adulthood pathways. The programmes link closely with the Education Health and Care Plan process.
Focusing on young people’s aspirations, interests and needs, the courses guide the development of core personal and social skills, empowering students to achieve successful outcomes and pursue future ambitions.
The flexibility of the courses enables learner-centred goals to be identified, and teaching and learning approaches to be tailored to individual students’ needs, making them a powerful and engaging option for young people with a range of autistic spectrum needs.
Aspirational pathways
Jaswinder Kaur is a senior leader at SEND school and a specialist autism practitioner. She explains the importance of young people with SEND having aspirational pathways that are bespoke and enable them to grow both personally and socially:
“We selected ASDAN courses for our students who have a diagnosis of autism and learning disabilities, as the flexibility enables our teachers to adapt the curriculum so students can achieve personal goals, work-related skills and realise a pathway to their independence. The courses have been very well received by our teachers, and parents have also seen the positive impact on their child’s progress. We highly recommend ASDAN’s courses as the results speak for themselves.”
