I want to go to college after I finish school but I am worried I will lose all the support school have put in place for me. Is this the case?

No. If you have special educational needs you might need some extra help in college and your college should do everything it can to find out what you want to achieve and how it can support you to achieve that.

For example, if you need a key adult to support you in classes, then this should be put in place. 

It is similar to the support schools have to provide but there is more focus on helping you prepare for the future.

The college should work with you, and your parents, to decide what support you need and how to provide it.  

Your college should have someone who makes sure pupils get the support they need, and you could arrange to speak with them about what support the college offers. You could also look at its SEN policies online.

You can find out more about how college can support you here.

If you have an EHC plan, the local authority must review and update it so it includes where you learn when you finish school. There are rules about how this must happen. See here for more information.
