Service summary
NHS England Choices College
NHS England Choices College is a Specialist Post-16 College providing a person-centred, individually tailored Supported Internship to young adults with learning difficulties, disabilities and/or Autism. Through the Internship, 16-24 year olds gain work experience, develop independence skills and increase their employability.
Our service is bespoke, offering tailored support to each Intern, and employment opportunities are matched to the individual’s skills. Choices College aims to empower Interns and build their confidence as individuals in the workplace, while also offering life experience beyond their home and school environments.
The Internship is for 16–24-year-olds with learning difficulties, disabilities and/or Autism. There are no academic requirements to join the Internship, however individuals will need to have an aspiration to work and a current Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) in place. Choices College will need to be named in the EHCP, so parents and/or carers will need to be in discussion with the local commissioning authority for this to be arranged.
