Transition and Pathway Program (TaPP)
UOW Discovery Day
Recently, Year 12 students had the opportunity to experience a day at university. They attended lectures, offering them a glimpse into higher education. Students also took part in campus tours, discovering resources like libraries, study spaces, and popular eateries. The visit gave them the chance to speak with current students and staff about university life, helping them get a feel for the academic atmosphere and make more informed decisions about their future.



Work Experience Opportunities
Work Experience provides students with short-term placements in various industries, broadening their understanding of the world of work and potential career paths.
- Year 10: students will participate in work experience later this year.
- Years 11 & 12: students are welcome to apply for work experience, however, they must ensure their placement does not conflict with assessments or essential coursework. All work experience applications require Principal approval.
Important Note: Work experience is distinct from work placements, which are a mandatory component of VET courses. For all inquiries regarding TVET, EVET and SBATs, please contact Mrs. Kellyanne Wynen, VET Coordinator.
Year 10 Work Ready Program
This program is specifically designed for students who are considering leaving school at the end of the year. Its primary goal is to provide students with the skills and confidence necessary to successfully navigate their post-school options.
Students can now submit their Expressions of Interest via the Year 10 TaP Google Classroom.
