Tailored Learning
Your path to learning, skills, and future opportunities
What is Tailored Learning?
Tailored Learning is a program designed for young people from Year 8 to Year 12 who might find school challenging or feel disconnected from learning.
It gives participants a different way to learn - one that fits their life and helps them succeed.
Why Tailored Learning?
Sometimes life gets complicated. Tailored Learning is here to help young people stay on track by:
- Understanding their needs through personalised support
- Helping with life challenges that make learning hard
- Connecting participants to real opportunities for education, training, and jobs
How does Tailored Learning work?
When you join Tailored Learning with APM, you’ll get:
Case Management
- Regular support with a friendly case manager
- Meet at your school or at our local APM site
- Access to other helpful programs and services
Group Programs

- Learn skills together and build confidence
eLearning
- Online modules from Employable Me to boost your job readiness
Person-centred support
Our Youth Connections and Pathways Model shows how APM’s Tailored Learning program works.
At the center is the student. Around them is a Youth Hub Team with coaches and specialists who help with learning, wellbeing, and planning for their future.
Outside the hub are extra supports like health services, community groups, and job pathways.
Students who join our program, may get access to:
- Personalised guidance from youth coaches and professionals
- Health and wellbeing services
- Connections to community and cultural groups
- Support for school leavers and mental health needs
- Clear pathways to employment and further training
APM’s role is to bring everyone together and make sure they work as one team for the student.
We coordinate their Youth Hub Team, set up meetings, share information, and create one clear plan so they don’t have to manage different services alone.
We also connect them to outside supports like doctors, training providers, and employers. Everything is organised so each student gets the right help at the right time to reach their goals.
What makes Tailored Learning different?
- Flexible and tailored: We work with participants and schools to create a plan that suits their goals
- Engaging modules: Developed by experienced allied health professionals
- Community connections: Meet people, build networks, and discover opportunities
- Career pathways: Move toward further training or employment
Tailored Learning was previously known as Flexible Learning Options (FLO).

- In school years 8 to 12
