At SMYL Community College, all students build their social and personal capabilities through hands-on learning and real-world projects. These capabilities are developed across core subjects like Maths and English, where students take part in group and community projects.

​

From Year 10 onwards, every student completes a vocational qualification. This may include Leadership or Workplace Skills, leading into Certificate courses in Year's 11 & 12. These opportunities ensure that every student graduates with recognised qualifications and the practical skills needed for work and life.
