Senior Education and Training (SET) Plan
During
Term 3 of Year 10, students will undertake various activities to assist in the
decision making process regarding their future education and/or training and
employment pathways.
As
part of this process, students and their parent/guardian will complete a Senior
Education and Training (SET) plan interview.
Various
documentation will be signed by both parents and students regarding
expectations for their senior schooling. Two of these important documents are
the:
Access arrangements and reasonable adjustments (AARA)
Some students may have disability, impairment and/or medical conditions or experience other circumstances that may affect their ability to read, respond to and participate in assessment. Access arrangements and reasonable adjustments (AARA) are designed to assist these students.
Access arrangements are actions taken by the school so that a student with an eligible impairment that may not be covered by the definition of disability can access assessment.
Reasonable adjustments are actions taken by the school so that a student with an eligible impairment as a result of a disability and/or medical condition and experiencing other circumstances creating a barrier to the completion of assessment can be assessed.
AARA require schools and families to work with medical providers to identify and discuss a student’s barriers to assessment (functional impact/s) and their AARA eligibility, in consultation with parents/carers. The student’s AARA requirements may vary with each subject.
