The Guideline for Individual Learning is the basis for planning, teaching, learning and assessment in the senior school.
The Lifestyle Curriculum is based on a three year scope and sequence of units about personal identity and the development of knowledge and understanding of the home and community.
Also, students complete work training programs (focussing on independent living skills) and social and emotional programs, with an emphasis on developing as much independence in self-care as possible.
