This is when you can make plans – what YOU want for YOUR future. You will have a meeting every year from year 9 (when you are 14), usually at school but can be anywhere. Anyone who is an important part of your life should come to the meeting:
YOU
Connexions personal advisor
Parents or carers
Teacher and headteacher
Friends and Advocate
Social worker
Someone who knows about your health – eg your physio
It should talk about school and college but also jobs, day service, money, social life, what you are good at and what you need more help with. Get ready for the meeting – think about what you want, talk to people for ideas and then tell people at the meeting.
