Students with disabilities often get a much reduced level of support when it comes to moving from secondary to post secondary education. Studies get harder and this requires more support. The INCLUSIVE PATHS project brings light to this issue by providing trainings and finding gaps in the current education system.

Aims

The project aims to: 

• identify and fill a training gap for staff in secondary education to ensure smooth transition to post-secondary education.
• identify training gaps in staff in post-secondary education and adult learning and education to support persons with disabilities.
• support informal carers to influence persons with disabilities to progress through different spheres of education, by becoming allies.

Main target groups

• Educators and Staff in Secondary Schools  
• Educators and Staff in Post Secondary (PSE) ecosystem 
• Informal carers (e.g. family members & circles of support)
• People with intellectual and developmental disabilities who are finishing secondary education and/or are out of education & training 

Activities

• National focus groups and country reports: “Needs, Challenges, and Solutions for Inclusive Transition Pathways.” 
• Capacity-building and awareness-raising handbook and workshops: “Creating Inclusive Transition Pathways to Post-Secondary Education.”  

Project Results 

• 3D Interactive E-learning game: “Pathways Explorers.”
• Capacity-building and awareness-raising handbook
