3 INTRODUCTION Introduction The Career Enterprise Centre gives students with disabilities the opportunity to gain skills so that they can reach their full potential and live an independent and productive life post school. The CEC supports students with special educational needs by providing specialised subjects for Years 11, 12 and 13, with each student having an individual education plan developed for their specific needs and abilities. Our location on the Peel Education and Training Campus, enables our students to enjoy industrial standard facilities with learning pathways into College and TAFE courses. School Priorities Enterprise Education with a Career Focus: this priority is directly linked to our school based programs, providing practical applications for students to demonstrate cognisance of skills taught in the classroom. Social Emotional Development: strategies used to measure the success of this priority are linked to our Behaviour Management program, incorporating the five values noted in the Curriculum Framework. An Art Therapy Course designed by our Art Specialist has been endorsed by the Curriculum Council and was implemented in 2011, specifically targeting students most at risk. Literacy and Numeracy: these continue to be priorities and are developed through integrated learning strategies while students are engaged in a variety of practical projects, as well as during specific Maths and English classes. Features of Enrolment Enrolments have continued to increase since Predicted numbers for 2013 onwards are significantly lower due to the half cohort and retention of senior school students at Halls Head Community College ESC. CEC families tend to be stable and students enrolled in year 11 complete year12 in most instances. Students in DACP care are more transient and this results in enrolment fluctuations.
