With a focus on literacy and numeracy, all programming and learning activities are developed based on young people’s Educational Adjustment Plans which are differentiated based on learning levels and what they require to re-engage.
St Joseph's Catholic Flexible Learning Centre is a Catholic School in the Edmund Rice tradition and part of the EREA Central West Flexi Schools Network. It has a clear commitment to social justice and stands in solidarity with disenfranchised young people of all social, cultural and religious backgrounds, with a particular sensitivity to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture. The school provides holistic learning experiences that address the complex needs of students and promotes their emotional, cognitive, spiritual and academic development.
