Indie School provides students the opportunity to learn in a supportive environment using individualised learning and education plans, tailored to each student's own education and life circumstances. Smaller class sizes allow students greater opportunity to identify their strengths and work to improve areas in which they lack confidence.
Indie College is a not-for-profit Registered Training Organisation (RTO) that delivers nationally recognised training.
Indie College supports young people and adults to re-engage back into education who may have disengaged or are impacted by a variety of personal or health circumstances. We explore individual goals related to pathways back into school, employment or further accredited training, whilst assisting the development of Language, Literacy and numeracy skills and building confidence.
The greatest difference between Indie School and many other alternative education settings is that our foundations lie in Adult Education philosophies. Choice, independence, mutual respect and accountability all have a significant role to play. In return for higher levels of self-responsibility, the students can enjoy some greater freedoms.
The successful applicant will work with Indie College students one-on-one or in small groups to deliver the VCE Vocational Major/Victorian Pathways Certificate. This is a non-traditional teaching role with a strong focus on re-engaging students who have not experienced success in traditional learning settings.
