Learning for Life is a project providing educational resources for young people with Down’s syndrome and special educational needs. It covers primary, secondary, and beyond school, focusing on the Relationships and Sexual Education curriculum. The resources are created in line with what the Down’s syndrome community needs; teaching on personal health, emotions, relationships, and appropriate behaviour. Current series explore Growing Up and Keeping Safe, Emotions, and Caring Friendships. These resources are created with specialist teachers and speech and language therapists, to provide accessible and specialised teaching across educational settings and in the home. To break down barriers in SEN education and support provisions, all Learning for Life resources are completely FREE. The resources are made in conjunction with Inclusively Down and 21 Together.
