Flexible Learning Options (FLO)

Our FLO program supports the successful retention of young people who are identified at risk of disengaging from a mainstream learning program at school.

 

Based at Aldinga Beach, our program currently supports approximately 100 students who have multiple complexities in their lives. Each student has a qualified case manager to help address wellbeing issues which may include:

  • anxiety and depression
  • learning difficulties
  • social and behavioural problems
  • bullying
  • homelessness and transience
  • family difficulties.

FLO students and their parents / caregivers work with school staff and case managers to identify strengths, special interests and areas where the student needs support. This information is used to develop a Flexible Learning and Transition Portfolio that can lead to:

  • learning options outside school
  • access to subjects of specific interest
  • support from other agencies – eg youth and community services
  • further education, training and apprenticeships
  • employment opportunities
  • additional learning and wellbeing support.
