Work Experience Toolkit by Brighton and Hove City Council (BHCC)

Here you will find the link to the LearnLive content which accompanied the My Week Of Work series in June 2020.

This is the sixth resource in our Supporting Employers: Working with Young People with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) collection.

This resource takes you through some tips on choosing and planning activity when working with young people with SEND. It also contains useful checklists for when you choose your activity to support its implementation. 

An example of how My Week of Work could be adapted and used in your school or college, Shrewsbury Academy structured the programme as  compulsory modules, which tutor groups can watch together and engage in follow up discussions, and optional modules which enables learners to choose the sectors and employers they are interested in.

Developed by Black Country Careers Hub.

A sensory pack of career lesson ideas for PMLD Learners for them to explore the world of work. The suite of lesson ideas focuses on the experience gained through completing activities as opposed to the “end product” that is produced. It focuses upon developing children’s communication, engagement and experiences of the world of work.
