Co-designing a specialised alternative learning program (PIVOT) for Ipswich Community Youth Service

Beacon Strategies partnered with the Ipswich Community Youth Service (ICYS) to co-design the ICYS PIVOT Program, a specialised alternative learning program based in Ipswich and funded by the Department of Education. The program has been developed to support young people aged 10–16 who are in contact with the youth justice system or have needs that cannot be accommodated in a conventional school setting. Co-design and consultation were key elements of the project to ensure that the program design process was informed by young people with lived experience and stakeholders who have relevant knowledge and expertise.
