Consultation description

The purpose of this consultation is to consider the options for disability support provided to young people accessing DfE ELL1 provision.

This proposal has been developed following a review of current provision and engagement with stakeholders. The department hosted a range of workshops with stakeholders – including training providers and FE colleges, currently delivering Skills for Life and Work (SfLW.) Separate workshops were held with representatives of the disability sector to provide them with background on the SfLW programme and seek their views on the proposal.

DfE welcomes your views on the proposal by responding to the questions contained in the online survey.
