SELF-DIRECTED COMMUNITY LEARNING

Individual students can gain credit for Self-Directed Community Learning activities that are not formally accredited by the SACE Board. Examples of this type of learning include:

  • creating media productions (e.g. films, websites) outside school
  • performing in sport at an elite level or officiating at sporting events
  • planning and coordinating community events
  • taking a leadership role in community groups
  • taking a leadership role in the workplace
  • taking responsibility for the care of an older adult or person with a disability
  • teaching others specialised skills (e.g. dance).

Please note:

1. Self-Directed Community Learning credits are not to be selected in lieu of subjects

2. Self-Directed Community Learning does not fulfil the compulsory SACE requirements

3. Self-Directed Community Learning does not provide pathways to Stage 2 subjects from Stage 1

Students need to submit an application form and attend an interview to have their self-directed community learning recognised as part of their SACE.

If you are interested please contact the Head of Senior School.
