Open Learning Campus at Cairns School for Distance Education (CSDE)
The Open Learning Campus vision is to engage young people in individualised programs by delivering authentic education, training and well-being programs via blended learning (on-campus, face-to-face and online). Enrolment scope is for young people who have disconnected or are significantly disengaged from education and residing in Cairns. School-based enrolment is for young people who are disengaging from education and meet the criteria for one the school-based programs provided.
The campus is focused on re-engaging young people who fulfil enrolment criteria with an education, training or employment pathway. Tailored support programs to re-engage previously disconnected and significantly disengaged young people are aligned with learner centric programming to support the retention of young people at risk of disengaging from education. Open Learning Campus staff will work to assist young people in the attainment of skills, achievements and qualifications that align with personal wellbeing, education and training standards that reflect community expectations.
