Vocational Education & Training (VET)
Vocational Education and Training at Churchlands SHS provides Year 11 and 12 students with opportunities to maximise the outcomes of their Secondary Education. VET programs provide secondary school students (both tertiary and vocationally bound) with opportunities to complete part or all of national qualifications while studying towards their WACE. Students can study Vocational Education and Training (VET) courses as well as Subjects.
Students can also get a head start on an Apprenticeship or Traineeship by becoming involved in a Pre Apprenticeship in schools program (PAiS), School Based Traineeship or School Based Apprenticeship when available.
There are many benefits to students who complete nationally recognised qualifications. Completion of these courses may give them direct entry to the next qualification level at a State or Private Training Provider, make them more competitive in the employment market and give them subject equivalence for secondary graduation.
The VET Coordinator will work with students and parents to guide them through the VET process. You can contact Mr Tim Morton via email.

Additional VET qualifications are also delivered through the VET in schools program which is resourced by the State Government. This involves students attending a TAFE or Private Training Provider one day per week as part of their normal school program.
There are so many different apprenticeships and traineeships available. You can start researching these resources;
VET Delivered to Secondary School Students (VETDSS)
VET delivered to secondary students (VETDSS) enables senior secondary school students to develop skills and knowledge for employment or further study. VET studies can be undertaken at the same time as study towards a Western Australian Certificate of Education (WACE). Successful completion of a VET in schools program enables students to gain nationally recognised qualifications.
