Employment support for school leavers and students with disability
We provide support to students, parents and carers to ensure students have the best opportunities as they prepare to leave school. Providing the right level and type of support is important to make sure that the work you do now aligns to your goals for the future.
School Leaver Employment Supports (NDIS)
School Leaver Employment Supports (SLES) are available for eligible Year 12 students under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). If you require supported employment under the NDIS, we can support you as you prepare to leave school and create a plan for your future.
Eligible School Leavers (DES)
If you are leaving school and have a disability, you may be eligible for Disability Employment Services (DES). These services help you prepare for work by linking you with appropriate health support, training and potential jobs.
NDIS School Leavers Employment Supports (SLES)
Year 12 school leavers with disability and eligible for SLES can receive individualised supports to build skills and assist in confidently transitioning from school to employment.
