Moving from childhood to adulthood
All young people between the ages of 14 and 25 experience major changes in their lives with the journey from childhood to adulthood; the move from being a pupil to an employee and from dependence on parental care to independence in the community. This can be particularly challenging for vulnerable young people and their families, including those leaving care or those affected by disability or illness.
The Telford and Wrekin Multi Agency Transition Protocol sets out the expectations, roles and responsibilities for all agencies that support children and young people through transition from childhood to adulthood. This guide can also help young people and their families through the process.
