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 a Student Counsellor/Wellbeing Leader.
