Traditional learning didn't work for Nash Clark.
00:05
He lives with autism and has been homeschooled for the past five years.
00:08
His mum Paula says he's part of a cohort the school system doesn't accommodate.
00:13
We're getting the calls to come and collect the kids constantly.
00:16
They start the school refusal, they don't want to go to school.
00:19
The education minister says there's a growing trend of students refusing to go to school
00:23
due to a variety of complex reasons like disability or mental health challenges.
00:28
The review into alternative education aims to look at the causes and investigate workable options.
00:34
It's the right time for us to have a look at what options we have outside of mainstream schools
00:39
to make sure that there is capacity for that growth, to make sure they are the right fit for students and for families.
00:45
The review will also look at Open Access College which offers online teaching for primary and secondary students.
00:50
Most of our students come because they have mental, physical, health issues.
00:57
That means that they're not able to attend a local school.
01:00
The college welcomes the review and hopes it will identify strengths and offer improvements to their model.
01:06
Hopefully the review will be quite supportive of students and can make the learning for our students a better experience.
01:15
Ms Clark also welcomes the review but wants more to be done for students she says are left behind.
01:21
I'm grateful for anything the government are putting forward.
01:24
But again, the children that it's already too late for, where do they fit in?
01:28
The review will be completed by the end of the year.
01:31
Thank you very much
