What can students do to help prepare for independence?

Ages 16+: Preparing to live independently

When we consult with students about what they want to learn in PSHE, a popular theme is moving away from home and managing basic tasks such as washing, cleaning, cooking and budgeting. 'Life skills'. This activity pack considers these issues as well as other themes such as how to manage loneliness, time management, and budgeting skills.
