Gateway supports students to undertake learning and assessment in the workplace. The programme provides broader educational options and strengthens pathways to further education and training or employment. While students complete a work placement, they have their learning assessed against unit standards. Gateway may lead to employment opportunities. Each student has their own individual learning plan which is integrated into their school-based learning to ensure coherence in the school year. We endeavour to align the learning plan with one of the six Vocational Pathways
