Kingston
College is an Education Queensland multi-pathway campus. The Adult
Education Centre is part of Kingston College and although separated
physically from the main school it is designated by Education Queensland as a
Centre for Continuing Education
The Adult
Education Centre provides an opportunity for students, aged 15 and over, to
continue or to re-engage in formal learning programs within a flexible and
informal setting.
The Centre has re-entry
courses for people with different needs and starting points who wish to
undertake part-time or full-time studies in pre-year 10 English and Maths,
year 10, year 11 and 12 and in senior externally assessed subjects.
People who enrol at the
Kingston College Adult Education Centre have different starting points, such
as-
-
returning
to learning after an extended absence
-
re-engaging
in learning after some previous negative schooling experience
-
undertaking
year 10 subjects for better work prospects e.g. apprenticeships, entry into
the Defence Forces, TAFE pre-vocational courses
-
completing
English and Maths A for a Senior Certificate
-
completing
English Communication and Pre-Vocational Maths for a Senior Certificate
-
completing
other Senior subjects for tertiary entrance
-
balancing
family commitments and study around the day and/or evening sessions
-
taking a
literacy/numeracy course (Everyday Maths and English) to increase confidence
and skills before starting year 10
We have had
students enrolled at the Adult Education Centre from 15 years into their
70's, all building on opportunities.
Enrolments are generally taken
two to three weeks before each course starts. |
