I would like to take some time to give you some positive feedback about the staff at AITC Gold Coast. Our son started at the AITC this year in Year 11. He was a kid that just ‘turned up’ to school, his attendance was horrendous to say the least. He had no goals and no ambition for anything, he was a kid that just didn’t fit into the mainstream schooling system.

As parents of an AITC young person, we would like to express our appreciation and thanks to all the hard working staff at AITC who made the challenging transition of moving the students to the at home learning platform.

The regular phonecalls from teachers to young people also were a great way to help young people feel connected, supported and accountable . We understand and greatly appreciate all the time and energy that you and...

This is our sons first year at AITC, and we could not be more confident that enrolling him into The Rookie Program is the best investment for his future. In such a short amount of time we can see a growth in his self-confidence and maturity. He has a new sense of independence, responsibility and understanding of the real world.

Thank you AITC – Sunshine Coast. We all have been hit with a massive curve ball but its great to see everyone pivot and carry on. [Our son] has enjoyed studying from home and the transition has been fairly smooth. I understand there would have been a massive amount of work from your team to get this sorted. You’ve all done a great job – thank you.

Parent, 2020
