Our services

We believe that everyone has the right to further education, regardless of need. We offer a unique educational service for young people with learning disabilities, complex communication needs, and autism

Friends+ stands for Fun, Reliable, Individual, Educational, New, Diverse, Support! We help students and their families 24/7 by providing personal support that fits alongside the family and young person

Next Steps is a guided extension of Teens+ that enables young people with additional complex needs to develop skills & explore new experiences, and discover what independence can look like

Next Steps

We are an Edinburgh-based, full-time, transitional education project for young adults with learning disabilities and complex and severe communication needs aged 17 to their 20s.

Teens+ is a unique service which provides further education, life and social skills, offers work placement support, transition to ownership of tenancies and lifelong learning to young people who, due to their needs, would ordinarily be excluded from accessing any form of further education once they have left school. Our main philosophy is that everyone is entitled to lifelong learning regardless of challenges.
