What the college says

Futures@SSC is designed to help people with severe learning difficulties (SLD), profound multiple learning difficulties (PMLD) and/or learners with moderate learning difficulties (MLD) which is accompanied by an addition need (personal care, medication or secure environment) achieve their full potential within a safe and secure learning environment. If you have an EHCP and need support for some of the main aspects of day to day life, learning and social interaction, then this may be the course for you. If you have been identified as having layers of �complex� need you will be guided towards our �Futures� provision.
