The OPT Award

How it works
The OPT Award supports PMLD students aged 16 and over in their transition to adulthood. Students regarded as having ‘special needs’ are rarely recognised for their achievements and abilities, yet face extraordinary challenges in their daily lives, both physical and mental, yet they rarely complain. They set an example to us all.
We hope everyone enjoys their journey through The OPT Award, and we can’t wait to see everyone’s achievements.
