Create Youth
"An alternative education setting for young people no longer at school’
CREATE Youth is an alternative education program for young people aged 14 – 19 years who are no longer enrolled in a secondary college. Literacy, numeracy and selected electives from the nationally accredited Certificate in General Education for Adults (CGEA) are delivered in a flexible and creative manner which allows young people to successfully complete their qualification.
Other activities such as sport, art, cooking and excursions are also offered.
We offer ongoing enrolments throughout the academic year and work in conjunction with local secondary schools and other community organisations to help meet the needs of students.
Individual assistance and support is available to our students in many areas which include family and peer relationships, the legal system, education, employment and training, income security, accommodation, and recreation and health. We also offer individual and group pathway planning and transition assistance.
CREATE Youth is committed to providing young people with learning, social and personal support based on their individual needs. CREATE focuses on helping students learn social skills, prepare for future employment, and provide assistance so that they can make informed choices about further education, training or employment.

If you have not completed Year 12 we can provide you with an intermediate VCAL certificate and Certificate III in Business. This training is based on your needs and assists you to successfully transition into further education and training or employment.
