Centre based programs

The Pathway Academy develops personally relevant goals in relation to vocations, education and life skills. Funded by ‘School Leavers Employment Support’ (SLES), it provides vocational skills to transition from school into adulthood, and then eventually employment. 

 The program we offer includes a five-day workweek with three days allocated for SLES, one day for a recognized qualification, and one day for Life Skills (additional fees may be required). 

Taking a holistic approach of building the individual with a person centered and strength  based approach, this program enables the participant to achieve their goals.

The Pathway Academy takes a unique approach where a program is built around the needs 

of the participant, rather than 

a one size fit’s all curriculum.

The program has been designed to assist people with a disability or a learning barrier at any age, 

to learn the NSW road rules and laws that will enable them to pass the Drivers Knowledge Test (DKT) and allow them to commence driving lessons with an instructor who has undergone specific training under the NDIS Guidelines to support clients with additional needs.

The Program takes a 'hands on' approach to learning, using models, simple language and phrases to bring the information to life, 

and to enable the participant 

to pass their DKT.

Some participants may have no intention

to drive, or their goal could be to have a Conditional License in the future, while others may have an interest in cars and road rules.

Navigating relationships is an essential part of a person’s life, and social and relationship guidelines are the basis for our society. In modern society a person with a disability can be vulnerable 

and can potentially be abused, or unable to

identify the types of relationships and the

appropriate level of intimacy expressed.

The 10-week program workshops the layers of relationships.  The concepts of choice, mutual consent and the layers of intimacy that are appropriate will be approached with clients.

We develop the skills to establish and

maintain healthy relationships with family, extended family, work  colleagues, friends, 

and even strangers.
