This guide will help local areas to develop the Preparation for Adulthood elements of their Local Offer.
It provides ideas and suggestions for what to include in the Local Offer so that it supports young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) as they prepare for and move into adulthood. It aims to help young people achieve better life chances as intended by them.

This Learning Example is from Dudley, Hertfordshire, Kingston and Richmond and Leeds, who have been working on the strategic engagement of young people and their parent carers as part of their work as PfA demonstration sites.
