  • Develop Individual Transition Plans to make available post-school options such as full-time employment, post-school preparation for work and study.
  • Build partnerships with external agencies to gain specialised support for students including links with local community, TAFE, Colleges, Disability Employment Agencies and Apprenticeship/Traineeship networks.
  • Provide one-on-one consultation and develop individualised learning plans to aid students towards achieving personal career goals.
  • Facilitate and manage Individual Transition Planning for Life Skills students during years 10, 11 and 12 and linking them with supported post-school employment and/or study.
  • Work alongside the Career's Advisor to aid mainstream and Life Skills students in gaining a reality of their desired career pathway through a range of Work Experiences.
