PFA Statement

At Lime Academy Orton we begin to prepare our pupils for adult life from the moment they enter. We work hard to ensure that each pupil has appropriate, individualised Education Health Care Plan (EHCP) outcomes that are transferable to the real world. We want to support all our learners to gain skills that will support them in their future.

Preparation for Adult concentrates on the following key areas:

• Employment
• Independent Living
• Friends, Relationships and Community
• Good Health

At the end of their time in school with us our learners progress to a wide range of local college and social care providers.

Our family liaison officers support young people and their families with transition to other settings at the right time for them. In addition to this all our Post 16 learners have a varied curriculum offer which incorporates extended links with local providers to give them an experience of the different environments which will help inform their future choices.

We are also lucky to have our own Hub at the Hurlington Centre, which is used as an extension of our learning space to provide work related learning and community access opportunities for all our learners at a level appropriate to their individual needs.
