Careers education is an integral part of the school’s educational program. The curriculum focuses on the development of students’ skills, knowledge and attitudes through a planned program of learning experiences. We empower students to make informed decisions about school and post-school education, training and employment options and participation in the community.
The school has Career Advisers who provides advice and information on subject choice selection, post-school courses, alternative career pathways and career options. The Careers Advisers organise speakers from universities, businesses and organisations to help advise students of varied career options. There are opportunities for students to obtain first-hand information at seminars, university and TAFE open days, trade fairs and careers expos.
Vocational Education lessons are part of the school curriculum in Year 10. The purpose is to assist students to develop the knowledge, skills, values, and attitudes necessary to make informed decisions about school and post-school options and support participation in work experience opportunities. Year 10 students will prepare for future employment by developing their job seeking and portfolio preparation skills.
