Key College, Merrylands campus, is a Youth Off The Street’s School. As a part of their “StepUp Program”, Year 11 & 12 students from Key College engaged in the S.E.A.T Project. Click here to read about it.
Key College, Merrylands campus, is an accredited high school offering a flexible curriculum with a focus on literacy and numeracy that responds to the specific needs, interests and talents of young people who have been disconnected from mainstream education.
Young people who enrol in Youth Off The Street’s schools are working to change their lives. They leave their care prepared for a brighter future. That means having a high school education and a job in hand. It means living free from drugs with skills to face the world.
All youth deserve the best possible chance at starting life as a young adult in the right environment. Youth Off The Streets provide a structured and stable environment for all students to achieve the best possible outcomes in line with modified learning environments and empathetic staff. Without the Youth Off The Street school, many of the youths that have been assisted may never have reached their full potential. — Jon Copson Lions Club Parramatta
