Developing solutions to real world problems
Students of TAS subjects receive real-life experience through the study of the variety of subjects with practical components being at the forefront of the learning experience.
Students graduate with practical skills that help them navigate their way through life and take with them valuable employability skills and are encouraged to focus on developing solutions to real world problems. They work collaboratively in Years 7-8 to analyse, design, test, document, implement and evaluate solutions to challenges. As they move into Years 9-12 they become increasingly sophisticated in their ability to design and produce solutions for authentic needs and opportunities. Our programs intertwine the theory of knowledge with its practical applications making meaningful connections with why they learn what they learn.
