The Woden School offers a unique supported high school and college program to eligible students who meet the ACT Disability Criteria. This includes students who have an intellectual disability which may be accompanied by a range of medical conditions, or additional sensory, physical or behavioural disabilities.
Students commencing in year 7 are enrolled in adapted and modified courses of study directly reflecting the National Australian Curriculum. Small class sizes ensure that students receive a high level of individual instruction. Like their mainstream peers students study core curriculum subjects, select electives according to individual preferences and participate in a range of exciting and age appropriate extra-curricular high school enrichment activities. Year 10 certificates are awarded at the end of their year 10 studies.
Depending on eligibility and personal choice, students then follow the natural transition pattern of other students enrolled in government schools in the ACT. For many year 10 students, this means a very supported transition to the local college – Canberra College. Others may elect to transition to other supported college settings in the ACT according to where they live.
