Early years, education, disabled children and young people and transitions
Equality 2025 project areas cover early years provision, primary, secondary, further and higher education and transition.
Equality 2025 are working with disabled children and young people, government agencies and the voluntary sector to ensure that the voices of disabled children and young people are heard in policies and decisions about their lives.
Priorities for these projects include:
making the case for inclusive early years, education and transition
listening to and empowering disabled children and young people
effective and young person-led transition
Equality 2025 would like to hear from disabled children and young and from disabled adults about your experiences of education and related services.
What is Equality 2025's aim?
Equality 2025's long term aim is to explore the case for inclusive early years and education at every stage and see how this links into the experience of transitions into adult life for disabled young people.
Equality 2025 aims to:
work with independent living and support projects
write advice notes to government identifying the benefits of inclusive early years education and effective transitional practice in improving the life chances of disabled learners
work with Department for Children, Schools, and Families on the implementation of the 'Engaging Children and Young People,' and 'Aiming High for Disabled Children' strategies to ensure that the views of disabled children and young people are listened to on issues and policies relating to their lives
