OverviewThe course manual aims to equip young people and adults with intellectual disabilities, autism or mental health difficulties with the personal and social skills to transition from childhood to adulthood and live successfully in the community. These skills include relating appropriately to different people, being as responsible and independent as possible, making decisions in an assertive manner, asking for help, coping with feelings and difficult situations, and building self-esteem. The PSHE course consists of 6 modules covering 30 sessions, ideal for a weekly session throughout a school or college year and can be linked to national accreditations and inspection. The course content can also be used with individuals. The manual includes a group leader's guide and participants' material. Each 1 1/2 hour session includes ideas for a range of engaging activities and can be run by a wide range of staff supporting people with SEND in educational, community and secure settings.
