Responsible person to read before signing this declaration

The learning and social environments of Vocational Education and Training (VET) are very different from secondary schools. VET is competency-based learning i.e. students will be required to consistently apply knowledge and skills to a certain standard of performance required in the workplace including applying skills to new situations and environments.

Adults use differing motivations, interests, attitudes, values and experience when they learn and teaching methods will be different from those encountered in a secondary school environment. All students will be required to actively participate in group activities and use their own judgement in decision making.

The French Beauty Academy is an adult learning environment, and all students are expected to participate in a mature manner.

Orientation and Attendance

Orientation is held on the first day of class and outlines The French Beauty Academy’s expectations of student participation. It is expected that you, as the responsible person, discuss the training program as outlined with your child to ensure participation requirements are understood. Clarification should be sought where necessary.

Classes are scheduled differently from secondary education classes and students are expected to manage their own time for themselves in a way that optimises their learning experience.

If a class finishes prior to the scheduled time, students will be released from class and will not be supervised.

Classroom and Learning

Students are responsible for their own learning and are expected to manage their workload, seeking assistance from educators when needed.

Students under 18 years of age share facilities such at The French Beauty Academy campus with adult students and adult workers.

Non Classroom Activities

Some activities involve students leaving The French Beauty Academy campus to complete team tasks. For learning purposes, there will only be short notice given to students prior to these activities occurring. By the responsible person signing this form, it will be assumed that permission has been granted for the student to participate in lawful activities off campus as and when they occur.
