Information for students
The "Somerset Your Futures" website is aimed at SEND young people and, helpfully, has an audio toolbar function which reads out the key pieces of text on a page. There are 24 key employment sectors to help you explore an array of different career options that may not require formal qualifications for SEND young people.
Within each sector you will find jobs giving you an overview of the role, job activities, organisations that may employ you, working environment, starting salary and general entry requirements. Links to external vacancies and video content are also included as are links to current vacancies. The easy to use 3-colour traffic light system allows users to find out quickly if formal qualifications would be required.
