There is currently Year 7 special consideration for rural families allowing Year 7 students to remain in their local Primary School. This gives families a very important choice.
In December 2017, this choice will be taken away, so there will no longer be an option for families. Families are already leaving their local communities and relocating as a result. We have formed a group made up of regional families and we are lobbying the Government to allow this option to continue. We would really appreciate it if you filled in this survey (website link below) to assist us in this process. It will only take a few minutes. Thank you, The Right Stage group Funded by the Department of Training and Workforce Development, this program is free to all participants. The new program is scheduled to start in early February, finishing in late November 2017.
Applicants from regional areas may apply for a scholarship to cover travel, accommodation and meals costs associated with attending the program. Please find full program details and the program schedule in the Guidelines, plus the Application Form. (These may also be downloaded from www.agendacommunication.com.au ) The deadline for lodgement of applications is 5.00pm Monday 28 November 2016, with successful applicants being notified by Friday 2 December 2016.
