An evaluation of the Real Opportunities project, which set out to address gaps in the support for young people with a learning disability, severe and complex needs and/or an Autistic Spectrum Disorder going through transition, by providing services designed to tackle the problems directly. The project provided a broadly integrated service approach linked to schools, driven by a person centred approach, with the availability of hands-on support to deliver selected transition goals. The report presents an overview of the project and the key problems in transition and considers the impact of this intervention in relation to: transition key workers, person centred planning, supported work experience, inclusion work, independence, and engaging peer mentors.
