When you are 18 years old, you are an adult and will be leaving school or college.

You may wish to consider:-

  • University
  • Apprenticeships
  • Work (employment)
  • Work Experience/Internships/Volunteering
  • Travel

Will my EHC plan continue after college?

When you reach 19 years old, the local authority must consider whether the education/training outcomes within the EHC plan have been met. If the learning goals have not been met and you need more time to achieve them, the EHC plan will continue (up to 25).
