New Guidelines for Alternative Education Programs available

Guidelines and application forms are now available on the Board's website for organisations wishing to apply for approval to deliver a Board Endorsed Alternative Education Program.

Board Endorsed Alternative Education Programs are provided for the very small number of 'at-risk' young people who are unable to participate effectively in formal education due to their exceptional circumstances.

The aim of Board Endorsed Alternative Education programs is to support young people to return to school, to other education or training, or into employment.

Read the Guidelines and Application forms for Equivalent and Alternative Courses of Study.
