CLOSED: On Track Survey - Special Schools
Victorian Government Department of Education
About the On Track survey
The Victorian Government Department of Education has commissioned Wallis Social Research to conduct surveys with Victorian School Leavers who have left schools within the last 6 months to understand their education, training and employment destinations on a school-to-school basis. Results from the survey will help the Victorian Government improve school, career, local job, and training services, and help develop the support available to young people to ensure that they have access to the guidance and skills they need to achieve their education and employment goals.
The 2024 On Track Survey involves three separate surveys:
Year 12 Completers survey
Early School Levers survey (left school before completing Year 12)
Special schools parents survey (young people with a disability/special needs)
When is the survey being conducted?
The On Track 2024 survey is now closed.
What does the survey involve?
The Special Schools Parents Survey will ask questions to see how young people with a disability or additional needs are going since leaving school including: the current main activity such as study, job, training; reasons for choosing your post school pathway; experiences with employment assistance; and engagement with Day Service.
The survey takes most people approximately 10 minutes to complete via phone.
