Students participate in Personalised Learning Plans, which are negotiated through a Transition Process.
Some of the areas covered are: Vocational Education and Training; Functional Academics; Community Access Programs; Living Skills and Transport and Mobility.
Through this process students are able to integrate into mainstream subjects which they are particularly interested: e.g. Music, Drama, P.E., Design and Technology.
