Head Start Traineeships
By Mr Glenn Robertson
Jordyn is a Newcomb Secondary Year 11 VCE VM student who has just started an exciting journey in a Head Start school-based Early Childhood Education and Care traineeship.
After completing a five day work trial over the Christmas school holiday break, Jordyn now works at the centre two days a week, attends secondary school three days a week and studies the theory component of her traineeship in her timetabled spares.
Taking advantage of a school-based traineeship means Jordyn will gain workplace skills that future employers value, all while completing her senior schooling.
To find out more about the Head Start program, speak to Newcomb Secondary's Senior Pathways Coordinator Megan Fell located in the Language Centre.
