Περίληψη: Supported internships are structured, work-based study programmes for 16 to 24-yearolds with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) who have an education, health and care plan (EHCP). The Department for Education (DfE) aimed to strengthen the supported internship programme, by making an £18m investment from September 2022 to March 2025. This was delivered through the Internships Work consortium and aimed to allow the supported internship programme to grow sustainably, so that more young people could pursue a supported internship, while also driving up the quality of provision. The programme was expanded in 2023 to include a Pilot of supported internships for young people without an EHCP but with identified or unidentified SEND, social, emotional or mental health needs (SEMH), or Learning Difficulties and/or Disabilities (LDD), or were furthest from the labour market. CooperGibson Research, with St Mary's University, was commissioned by the DfE to establish how, and to what extent, the investment in the supported internship programme has improved employment outcomes for young people taking part in a supported internship. The evaluation was also expanded to include the Pilot of supported internships. This annex provides a series of case studies developed from the qualitative evidence gathered during the evaluation. They are based on the accounts of local authorities, providers, interns and employers. All case studies included in this annex are anonymous, and no real names or identifying details have been used.
