Senior Education and Training (SET) Plan - due Friday 6th October
Year 10 students, in consultation with their school and parents/carers, are required by legislation to develop a Senior Education and Training (SET) Plan that maps out their learning and training through Years 11 & 12.
The personalised SET Plan is designed to:
1. Work as a ‘road map’ to help and empower students achieve their learning goals during the Senior Phase of Learning
2. Assist students to explore further options across education, training and industry sectors
3. Help students communicate with parents/carers, peers and school staff about their future aspirations and formally document a student learning pathways.
4. Ensure that students are aware of the requirements of the QCE and that they have made clear, informed choices which will set them up to ultimately obtain a QCE
5. Ensure that students are aware of the requirements to achieve an Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank (ATAR), Vocational qualification or an achievable career pathway after school.
As a reminder, the digital SET plan forms are due this Friday 6th October. For students requiring a careers appointment to finalise their plan, please email the Head of Career Development, Veronica Sanmarco vsanmarco@pacluth.qld.edu.au
Thank you to those Year 10 students who have submitted their SET Plans.

We have heard from girls, parents/carers and teachers, that addressing the challenges to navigating STEM pathways is a priority. This online panel will host a range of people that are passionately involved across the STEM careers sector.
