Dakota Jardine had hoped to attend a course at Dumfries and Galloway College but it has been discontinued because enrolment numbers were too low.
Local learning opportunities for less able people are under scrutiny after a New Galloway teenager had her hopes of attending college in Dumfries dashed.
“There were level three courses but none at level two – and level three is beyond Dakota’s development stage.“But that means four or five young people who would have benefited are losing out.“But at least if we shout about this it could help other people.“I feel my daughter has been forgotten about.”“It’s about social and life skills like home baking and will help Dakota get prepared to move on and find her own place.
It includes introducing her to Newton Stewart Adult Resource Centre , where she will spend three days a week.“Dakota was due to leave on May 16 but her time has been extended right to the end of the summer holidays.
