FAQ

What are life skills?
Life skills are the everyday abilities we all need to live confidently & independently. They include things like communication, problem-solving, organization, self-care & social skills. At The Life Skills Project, we support learners to develop these practical skills alongside their academic learning.
What is The Life Skills Project?
The Life Skills Project is an SEN learning & support service for children & adults with Special Educational Needs (SEN).Combining relational care, structured evidence-linked practices & experiential learning across Surrey & UK wide.

Skills classes & individual learning are for individuals with SEN aged from 9 through adulthood, including individuals with diverse learning profiles. Family support & SEN training services are for families, professionals & organizations respectively.

Skills classes are small-group lessons in Numeracy, Literacy, Digital Skills, Reading & Drama. Learners can join the subjects they most need support with, developing skills step by step in a supportive environment.

Individual learning support sessions are comparable to traditional tuition, but more personalized & flexible. Sessions are one-to-one, designed around the learner’s strengths, challenges & goals. We focus not only on Numeracy, Literacy, Digital Skills, Reading & Drama Coaching, but also on building confidence, independence & lasting learning strategies.

Qualified teachers with SEN experience lead sessions, sometimes joined by at least one learning support assistant. This depends on the number of learners present as well as their individual support needs.
