Success Stories “Lochie left school before the end of year 8. He has a learning disorder. He worked at a panel shop for a few months before being retrenched in October last year. It was difficult to get him to return to study but the TEC has been perfect for him. He has matured and enjoys learning. He is finally proud of what he is achieving and is trying harder than he ever has. Your teachers are supportive and positive. Brilliant program.” - Lochie’s Mum Footnote Lochie received an outstanding work placement report and has completed his VCAL Intermediate. He is staying on to complete a Carpentry pre-apprenticeship
