Welcome to Senior Schooling at Palmview SSC. We are thrilled to be working along side our students and families to begin navigating the variety of opportunities that senior schooling brings.
Our focus on leveraging partnerships that are founded in curiosity, collaboration, creativity and commitment will assist us to collectively support our students to plan for this next phase of their individual learning pathways. Through the Junior Learning Guarantee conversations, skills and knowledge learnt in the experiencing and exploring phases of learning at Palmview SSC, will be utilised to shape and purposefully navigate pathway options into year 10 in preparation for deeper study and mastery in years 11 and 12.
The senior phase of learning provides students with the opportunity to focus on subjects they are passionate about, subjects they excel in, subjects that are stepping stones to their preferred future pathway and career options. Along with school based subjects, students may choose to undertake opportunities in Vocational Education and Training (VET), TAFE, Headstart (UniSC), Work Experience, as well as school based apprenticeships and traineeships. These options make up part of the individualised Junior and Senior Learning Guarantee conversations.
Students are supported to make informed decisions about their options as they step into senior secondary and our staff at Palmview SSC, look forward to working collectively with our students and families to support the purposeful pursuit of personal best.
Warm regards,
Barry Dittman
Principal
Palmview State Secondary College.
