Please note that our Flexible Learning Options (FLO) program is only available in Port Pirie, Adelaide, South Australia.
yourtown’s FLO , Flipside, is committed to building resilience and promoting wellbeing in young people and supports the theory behind positive education.
We encourage students to develop behavioural awareness and re-shape how they respond to personal, social and community interactions.
A safe environment to learn and engage
When young people are identified as being at high risk of leaving school early, our team works hard to understand the issues at hand and offer practical solutions leading to positive outcomes.
Flipside helps young people develop the tools to re-engage in learning and/or prepare for work through:
- Diagnostic testing to identify barriers to learning
- A plan matched to individual needs, interests and aspirations
- Helping to develop positive behaviours to assist with re-engaging at school
- Career guidance and mentoring
- Life skills workshops aimed at improving self-confidence and interpersonal skills
- Support to complete an education program in line with the Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF)
- Opportunity to complete The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award
- Assistance transitioning to the next phase of learning, either through formal education, further training or employment
Flipside offers safe and effective programs which aim to help young people develop the necessary skills to re-engage with learning pathways.
