Transition – 13TRA - Year 13
COURSE DESCRIPTION
This course is designed as a practical course for students wanting to continue their studies at Level 3. The main element of the course will involve students planning, negotiating, resourcing and then undertaking one, or several, Community Service projects throughout the year. As such, many of the “lessons” will take place beyond the classroom and will require commitments of time beyond the normal school day. Students should recognise this as an opportunity to add something to a CV that is over and above the academic norm.
ENTRY REQUIREMENTS
Students need to have completed Level 2 (or be able to complete it within the first term of the course) and shown a good attendance record.
