| REAL LEARNING REAL FUTURES |
This report on the Real Learning Real Futures Program is provided to assist other schools and areas to examine one response to the diverse needs of young people within and through secondary schools.
The Real Learning Real Futures Project involves high-level cooperation between all ten Derwent secondary schools, which pool resources to provide a shared range of learning projects for students throughout the District. Students access the range of programs at school sites across the Derwent that focus on making the curriculum more interesting, more relevant and more meaningful. "In this way all students benefit and our students 'at-risk' have a much better provision that does not isolate them from the mainstream".
Projects in operation in 2003 include:
Agriculture, Aquaculture, Bricklaying, Maritime Adventure, Emergency Services, Holdens & Fords, Multimedia, Robotics, Aboriginal Cultural Awareness Camps, Natural Therapies, Pre Driver Awareness, Work Placement/Mentoring.
Roger Holdsworth, of the Australian Youth Research Centre completed the following evaluation and reflection of Real Learning Real Futures in February 2004.
