Travel Training

Travel training is designed to help children and young people from school year 9 and above, up to the age of 25 who have disabilities and special educational needs to build the skills and confidence to travel independently. This could mean using the bus, walking or cycling to get to school, college, work or leisure activities. When choosing a school or college it is always important to think and plan for how you or child will get there. 

Independent travel training is embedded in the support that Preparing for Adulthood Team provide.  The PFA Team works with young people with additional needs aged from Year 9 up to the age of 25.
