ConnectEd Program

An Update About ConnectEd

For many years, ConnectEd has supported young people who faced significant barriers to education, helping them reconnect with learning through relationships, wellbeing support and personalised support pathways.
 
ConnectEd and TEP will not continue beyond 2026 because changes to Commonwealth funding requirements and disability funding expectations mean the current outreach-based model is no longer financially sustainable. As a result, Alta1 is transitioning to a more structured school-based model focused on full-time educational provision.
 
While the delivery model is changing, Alta1’s commitment to young people has not changed. We remain focused on supporting students who face barriers to education through our Middle School and Senior School pathways and future school-based provision

Exploring Options for 2027

A relational, restorative approach with a destination in sight

Alta1’s available places for 2027 are limited.
 
Families seeking support for a young person are invited to submit an Expression of Interest so our team can better understand their circumstances and discuss available educational pathway options.
 
Every young person’s situation is different. Any potential placement or support pathway would be considered individually, taking into account:
 

Student needs

Available educational pathways

Campus capacity

Support requirements

 
While we are unable to guarantee availability, submitting an Expression of Interest allows our team to provide advice on potential Alta1 pathways and, where appropriate, suggest alternative educational options that may better meet your child’s needs.
