Transition
Leaving school or college marks an exciting new chapter in life filled with adventures beyond education. However, this transition can also bring about feelings of anxiety for both students and parents. It's essential to recognise that change, while thrilling, can be challenging. Ensuring that students and parents feel heard and understood throughout this process is crucial for a smooth and confident transition into adulthood.
Welcome to Jamats Academy! We are dedicated to partnering with schools and colleges to help students navigate the future with confidence. Our academy remains open during school holidays, offering a perfect opportunity for a gentle introduction to our centre while providing essential support for parents during half-term breaks. We aim to ease the transition into adulthood and alleviate some of the pressures that come with it.

Personal Development
Personal development is a lifelong process that helps to assess our skills and qualities, whilst also considering aims and goals in order to realise and maximise our potential.
At the Jamats Academy each member will have a personalised development plan which will become the focal point to ultimately achieving their desired end goals.
Throughout their time at the Academy we will also measure and assess progress to their development plans which will ultimately indicate when it might be necessary to move on to future opportunities. When the time comes to move on, we will offer our full support at every stage and help set up opportunities with external services wherever possible.
