HS is a very special place. We have become the center for teens who struggle with some challenges and do not fit into the mainstream system. They do not respond to mainstream rules and regulations so we cannot treat them the way they were treated in the mainstream.

The secret here is to really care about them and to try and remember your own teenage angst and how it feels to feel very alone in a world that has ostracised you or one you don't fit in

This doesn't mean they don't need boundaries - they definitely do

They are old enough to understand what reasonable boundaries are and need to be reminded of them calmly. What they really want is to be treated like adults and we can do that, but when they step out of line they need to be reminded that that's not the way adults should be acting. I found that this is the best approach with them

Also remember that they're just kids in a very scary social media-y world. This is their safe space

GED is for students who want to go to trade schools

GED does not give uni exemption but there is a way to get to uni, you will just take an extra couple of years

GED has only 4 subjects

You have to obtain 145/200 marks to pass - this is roughly 72.5%

It is worth it to do the mock exams at least 2 weeks prior to the actual exams - this will show you what you still need to work on to get a passing grade

There are many online platforms for GED, but we have found the books and My Online School to be the most effective to teach from
