Personal Learning Plan (PLP)
The Personal Learning Plan is completed during year 10 with students developing short, medium and long-term plans related to their personal, learning and career goals.
Students interact with staff and community members when undertaking research into careers and senior school subject selection. They compile a folio consisting of evidence of their interactions, investigations, planning and reflection. The folio is presented to a panel of staff and parents/care-givers during a round-table discussion. Assessment for SACE accreditation is based on the capabilities:
• literacy • numeracy • critical and creative thinking • personal and social • intercultural understanding • ethical • information and communication technology
The Personal Learning Plan is taught within the year 10 History/Geography line during two weeks of each term, culminating in the round table discussion early in term 4.
