Info for Schools

Young people are growing up in a world of rapidly changing work. Ensuring they are prepared for change is a challenge our schools and communities must meet for Victoria’s future. Our prosperity depends on our young people being ready for the new higher skilled economy.

South West LLEN builds partnerships in local areas to help young people:

• stay at, and achieve in, school

• understand the opportunities and pathways available, and

• transition to employment or further education.

South West LLEN bring schools, industry and the community together to address:

• the absence of careers support in schools

• the absence of accurate labour market information in communities

• the difficulty young people face gaining work experience, and

• the devaluing of vocational education pathways, that will be important in the future.
