Vocational Education: Empowering Students Through School-Based Apprenticeships and Traineeships
At St George, we take pride in having been told we are a beacon of excellence in School-Based Apprenticeships and Traineeships (SBA/T). Sustaining our reputation for excellence requires constant adaptation. We continuously evaluate our approach, incorporating feedback from students and stakeholders, and staying attuned to industry and department of education trends. This commitment to evolution ensures that we remain at the forefront of delivering an exceptional SBA/T experience.
A Personalised Journey to Success
From Year 10 onwards, students at St George SHS have the unique opportunity to engage in school-based apprenticeships and traineeships. To ensure the success of each student, we've developed a case management approach that is specific to the academic and professional needs of each student. This approach is designed to provide tailored support to every student, fostering their growth not only in their chosen apprenticeships or traineeships but also academically. What sets us apart is that this approach is more than a mere procedure—it's a philosophy that underscores our dedication to each student's educational journey.

We're devoted to equipping them with the skills, knowledge, and unwavering support required for success in both academics and vocational pursuits.

Key Benefits of Our Program:
- Personalised Support: Our case management practice is rooted in individualised assistance. Recognising that each student possesses unique learning preferences, goals, and challenges, we collaborate with providers to ensure students complete their theoretical coursework. This ensures they receive their appropriate Queensland Certificate of Education (QCE) points upon graduation.
- Early Intervention & Milestone Tracking: Early identification of challenges is crucial. By partnering with industry professionals, we ensure students remain on track academically and professionally. In cases where students face setbacks, industry partners are prepared to provide additional support.
- Open Channels of Communication: Effective communication is vital for a holistic learning experience. Our program nurtures open lines of communication among students, parents, employers, and stakeholders, fostering a collaborative network that bolsters student growth.
- Industry Liaison Officer: St George SHS funds an administrative officer who is dedicated to supporting case management of this program.
