This information is for deaf and hard of hearing students who will be leaving school at the end of the year.
This resource contains information which will help you to make some important decisions about different areas of your life.

Make the Move

Soon school will finish and you will leave. You will find you have to decide what to do next. Your choices are:

• doing more study to get better skills


• get a job


• go to Centrelink to find out what they can offer you

Some of the words you will see in Making the Move are in the glossary. You can look in the glossary to see what the word means. Just click on "Glossary of Words" in the right hand menu. Also there are movies in Auslan (with English captions) in the link called movies. The movies can take a while to open, so please be patient.
