Further education provider Activate Learning, which runs Reading College, is holding a summer transition event on Tuesday, August 10, from 10.30am to 12.30pm, for students who will be starting courses at the college in September.
Many people feel nervous about starting somewhere new, meeting new people, finding their way around campus, or adjusting to new routines, so the aim is to help students feel more prepared, particularly young people with SEND and those who have experienced challenges attending school.
As well as the chance to see the campus when it is quiet, there will be opportunities to meet other new students, find out about SEND support and other help and get help with enrolment and bursary applications where appropriate.
Similar events are taking place at Activate's other colleges in Oxfordshire and Surrey.
