Students will attend a combination of school, vocational training, and work experience. School delivery is structured around vocational training and work experience and is flexible and tailored to the needs of the student. Each core school subject will be delivered over approximately 3 hours per week, vocational training will be delivered over approximately 6 hours a week, depending on the chosen course and delivery options.
The school day starts at 8:30am and finishes at 2:30pm. Students will have 2 lunch breaks allocated throughout the day. Vocational training and work experience start and finish times will vary.
Below are the standard class times for school:

Generally, students will attend 2 days of schooling, 1 day of vocational training, and 2 days of work experience each week. If a student is undertaking a School Based Apprenticeship or Traineeship, they are unable to concurrently complete additional vocational training and therefore it is anticipated that they will attend 2 days of school, and 3 days of work (negotiated with the employer).
Students will be able to access TAFE facilities and services e.g. library, cafe, after hours access to the electronic learning centre. Other than work placement, students may be required to participate in field trips or off-site visits.
