My learning plan
Can you: talk about things you are interested in – give clear instructions – talk with adults you donot know – communicate clearly on the phone – ask questions about things that are unclear?
Things that are important to me:
Friends and family – religion – cultural needs – what must happen to make a good day – dreams.
Keeping safe and healthy:
Health needs – medication, if needed – diet – personal safety – support – personal care – feeling good – short breaks – sex education – personal relationships and friendships – any worries.
My family:
How can your family help you – what do they need to know – do you have older brothers or sisters already at your new school – what can you find out from them?
How good I am at learning and being able to study alone:
Where I am now – what do I need to learn – do I need help with learning – can I organise my time to learn effectively – what are my best subjects – what do I enjoy learning most and why?
Transport/travel:
How am I going to travel to school each day – what is the distance to the secondary school – am I allowed to ride a bike – who could I travel to school with – how do I make sure that I am on time?
Money:
Coping with money – budgeting pocket money – learning to save – learning value for money.
Having fun:
Leisure activities – hobbies – sports interests – holidays – where to go – who to contact – joining a club.
Friends:
Friends and special friends – who are they – how to keep in touch – who can help – making friends.
Helping in the community and thinking about the future for learning, work or training:
What you want to do – interests – ways you can help others – types of work you might be interested in for the future – voluntary work – continuing in learning – adventuring.
Changing schools: getting on with new people – making new friends – getting used to new teachers – finding my way around:
What help do you think you will need – who will be able to help?
Where you live and who you live with:
Where and how you live – who you live with.
Anything else?
Do you need more information or is there something you would like to add that hasnot been asked?
