The term 'Special Educational Needs' (SEN) has a legal definition. Young people with special educational needs have learning difficulties or disabilities that make it harder for them to learn than most others of the same age. These young people may need additional learning support from that given to others of the same age. The Local Authority (LA) will have to make an Education Health Care Needs Assessment (EHCNA) of the child/ young person's needs, based on specialist advice. If the Authority then decides that young person needs special help, they must write an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHC Plan).

Once a small commuter boat, the Mersey Ferries now offers daily River Explorer Cruises, a commuter service suitable for cyclists and pedestrians, and themed evening cruises throughout the summer.\nIn December 2023, Mersey Ferries signed a contract with Cammell Laird to produce a new vessel, the first in more than 60 years for the iconic tourist attraction.\nThe Royal Daffodil – named during a Keel Laying ceremony in January 2025 – is due to arrive on the water in summer 2026 and will be built locally in the Birkenhead shipyard, providing apprenticeships and training opportunities for the next generation of the Ferries team.\n What will you be doing?\nMersey Ferries Marine Apprenticeship will give you the practical skills required to work aboard our Ferries and provide you with the technical knowledge you need to help steer the boat and lead the crew in a safe and professional way.\nDuring term time, you’ll be studying away at Fleetwood Nautical College.
