Transition Education: A Pilot Program for Students with disabilities in Transition in the NSW Department of School Education
This paper looks at the development of a successful transition model from school to work and the community for students with disabilities. It identifies the goal of transition as ensuring that individuals with disabilities can choose from a range of options that enable them to reach their potential for successful community independence, taking into account working, living and socialising/friendship factors. To achieve this, consumers, parents, community resources, government agencies and private industry need to co-operate and collaborate. The model discusses a dual approach utilising school based and community based transition teams.
