Organisations in the guide can help you with a wide range of issues that you may be experiencing as a result of finishing school, or leaving school before you complete year 12, such as: 

• What are my options if I leave school?

• How do I do an apprenticeship?

• How can I get to TAFE?

• How can Services Australia (Centrelink) help me?

• Am I ready for work?

• How do I apply to do a course at University?

• Who can I talk to about all of this?

All of these are not easy questions. It can sometimes be difficult going through this process by yourself. There are however many helpful people willing to lend a hand in helping you to make the right decision for your future. 

Before you leave or finish school, it is a good idea to discuss your options with your school’s careers and pathways practitioners or a representative from your school’s student wellbeing teams, especially if you feel you need more advice and support. Use this guide as a starting point to gain advice and assistance to help you work out your options.
