Supported Internships

A Supported Internship offers young people aged 16-24 with an Education, Health and Care (EHC) plan, the opportunity to gain practical work-based learning experience, providing a smooth transition from education to paid employment and further study.

Students on the internships spend three days a week in employment and one day a week at College developing employability skills such as CV building, job applications, interview skills and English & maths.
