QAC 'Next Steps' Transition Event - October 2024

QAC hosted a 'Next Steps' Transition Event event for all current students and their parents/carers on Tuesday 29th October.

This event allowed students to meet a range of providers from education, training, employment, supported living and adult social care services as well as attend transition talks delivered by the transitions and careers leads.

Around 60 students and their families visited throughout the morning to meet with the 20 exhibitors in attendance. We are extremely grateful to all the providers for taking time out of their busy schedules to support the event and talk with our students.
