At NCD, we have developed a range of specialist pathways designed with your uniqueness in mind.
Each pathway aims to support young people with disabilities, learning difficulties, or difficulty managing emotions or behaviour to prepare for adult life. You will develop your confidence, independence, and work readiness.
We are here to help you prepare for life beyond college – you will be supported every step of the way, from transitioning from school to college to meeting your dedicated tutor.
Your experience at NCD will be individual to you, your skills and interests.
