We understand that mainstream education is not for every student, so we work in complete collaboration with schools who identify those young people who are becoming detached from mainstream education, to offer a blend, with the aim to fully reintegrate them back into school life. We can also support those year 11 students who are work ready into long term work placements to further enhance their future opportunities.

The My Future Assessment is a comprehensive, holistic assessment that will be completed on day one, in the middle and on completion, allowing us to monitor the progress and identify where further support is needed. These will be shared with schools to ensure that Positive Futures and the School are working together to ensure each student has the best possible opportunity to reach their full potential.
