Supporting young people to develop the skills, confidence and knowledge needed for adulthood is one of the most important aspects of working within supported accommodation. However, providers often face challenges in delivering independence-focused learning in a way that is structured, engaging, consistent and easy to evidence.

To support this work, Social Care Skills has developed the Supported Learning Independence Programme, a comprehensive learning framework designed specifically for young people aged 16+ living in supported accommodation settings.

On 18th November at 10:00am, we will be hosting a live online session for Programme Leads from new providers enrolled in the programme. We are also opening the session to other providers who would like to learn more about the programme and see how it can be implemented within their services.

This session offers a unique opportunity to explore the programme in practice rather than through a traditional sales presentation. Attendees will gain an understanding of the programme structure, learning materials, implementation process, and the support available to organisations adopting the programme.

The Supported Learning Independence Programme has been designed to help providers deliver purposeful, evidence-based work with young people while supporting preparation for adulthood and increasing independence. The programme covers a range of themes relevant to everyday life, including independent living skills, health and wellbeing, education and employment, relationships, financial management, community participation, and personal development.

During the session, we will explore:

The philosophy and aims of the Supported Learning Independence Programme
The structure of the programme and learning materials
The role of the Programme Lead and supporting staff
Recording learning and evidencing outcomes
Monitoring progress and supporting young people's development
Practical implementation within supported accommodation services
Questions and discussion with attendees

Whether you are already delivering independence-focused work, looking to strengthen your current approach, or exploring new ways of evidencing progress and outcomes, this session will provide valuable insight into how a structured learning framework can support both young people and staff.
