Planning Live

Transition planning support for schools, youth groups and colleges working with young people with additional support needs aged 14-25.

  • Do you work with young people aged 14-25 with additional support needs?
  • Do you help students to navigate their transition to adulthood?

If the answer is yes, these fun interactive online sessions will support your work.

Time to Talk Next Steps Planning Live online sessions are fun and interactive.

For practitioners working in Scotland this service is free due to funding from the Scottish Government as part of Time to Talk Next Steps Scotland

This is a great opportunity to access high quality, engaging transition support.   

We will work flexibly to meet the needs of you and your young people, with sessions specifically designed for you and the young people you support. 

Planning Live sessions are usually delivered virtually for small groups. Larger taster sessions, for example assemblies can also be organised. Sessions have proven to be highly successful in starting conversations about transition in schools and colleges.

Sessions are up to one hour long and are designed to:

  • Be enjoyable and creative.
  • Build students’ confidence to communicate about themselves.
  • Inspire staff to use person centred planning approaches.
  • Provide useful links to transition support.
 
Outcomes

After taking part in a Planning Live group session we aim for young people go home with a personal plan to share with parents and carers.

Our goal is simple: To put young people first and help you get the right support at the right time.
