It’s the time of year when school leavers start thinking about opportunities available after they leave school. Uni students also start wondering about how they can break into the job market.
There are post-school expos coming up in Normanhurst, North Sydney and Tumbi Umbi on the Central Coast – and a post-uni forum at Kensington. Read more: Leaving School or Uni?
A forum to help students and parents plan for life after school is on Wednesday 10 August at Chatswood.
Open to high school students with special learning needs, the forum covers the process of transition from school to adult life, making informed choices about the future, education and training options, employment services and other programs, financial assistance and government guidelines, how funding works and the levels allocated.

Enhancing the Links is a free Hunter and Central Coast Seminar and Service Expo that provides students and people with a disability – and the staff and services who support them – with information about the pathways, services and support available across the region. The focus of the day will be on moving to education, training, employment and post-school programs. Read more: Transition from High School Expo – Hunter
Finishing university this year or next? An employment and careers day for university students with a disability will be held at the University of Sydney on Monday 23 November from 11am to 2pm.
More free school leavers’ expos will be held in August for young people with a disability. Suited to students in Years 9-12, they’ll be an opportunity to meet service providers and explore the different programs that are available once you leave school. There’s events at Rozelle, Chatswood and West Ryde.
It must be the season! We’ve just heard of several more school leavers expos at Chatswood, Mt Druitt, McGraths Hills, Baulkham Hills and Emu Plains.
