Hi my Son Conner is aged 18 and has aspergers, he is currently enroled on project search in Halifax and is currently on workplacement at the Halifax hospital. This finishes in June of this year so I am exploring options for when it finishes. His speciality is ICT so is either looking for an level 2 apprenticeship or something alongside those lines. I am reaching out to see if someone can help him achieve those goals.

Welcome to the community @Tony_Balahura
There is lots of information on apprenticeships here and information on the National Autistic Society website about leaving school options here.
Hope this helps!Scope

Hi Tony, we also have a local service in Halifax which might be of interest for your son called Starting Line
