Abstract

For young people with a learning disability or other additional support needs, transitioning from the education system to adulthood is a crucial stage of life. But the support they receive often falls short of enabling them to meet their aspirations. In this podcast, we ask Scott Richardson-Read, of ARC Scotland, and 5 young people who have recently gone through the transitions process, how the system could be improved in Scotland. Timestamps: (00:50) What is ARC Scotland and what are “transitions to adulthood”? (04:04) Why is transition planning so important? (05:36) What does good transition planning look like? (10:52) Kieran, Laura, Claire, Rameez and Ryan talk about their experiences of transitioning to adulthood. (20:25) Kieran and Laura tell us about their work with ARC Scotland. (22:00) If you could put forward one change to improve transitions, what would it be?
