Evolution caters for young people who are under the guardianship of the minister who have been excluded, suspended or are refusing to attend mainstream school. The program also caters for other ‘at risk’ adolescents.
One of the aims of the program is to work closely with the young person and other stakeholders to identify and remove any school or home based barriers to the young person reengaging into school or some other training or employment. The program focuses on providing a safe environment that is supportive, educational and active in assisting the re-entry to mainstream education or training.
