Follow the Dream: Partnerships for Success is a tertiary aspirations program for Aboriginal students.

It targets Aboriginal students with high aspirations as they commence their secondary education. Participating students are encouraged to complete Year 12 and achieve results that enable entrance into tertiary studies. The program also supports high-achieving Aboriginal students in neighbouring schools.

Participating students benefit from after-school learning centres where tutors and mentors assist them in all facets of their education, and also from opportunities created by the involvement in the program of industry partners. The program operates in partnership with The Graham (Polly) Farmer Foundation.

ESL Support programs provide support for ESL/ESD students in the mainstream context.

A program is established in a mainstream school where there is a significant number of eligible ESL/ESD students.

ESL Support Programs are located in a number of primary and secondary schools. Eligible students with a background of limited schooling are entitled to extra support.

Vocational Education and Training (VET) in Schools programs are delivered as part of a broad, general education that combines study towards a senior secondary certificate with a nationally recognised VET qualification within the Australian Qualification Framework.

The specific areas identified as priority areas for VET in Schools for action in the Principles and Guidelines include:

- The establishment of VET in Schools by schools not previously involved in the delivery of VET in Schools.
- Expanding the range and spread of VET in Schools courses offered across industry sectors by schools already involved in the delivery of VET in Schools.
- The establishment of VET in Schools courses in new industry areas and in industry areas currently not well subscribed in VET in Schools.
- Increasing participation in VET in Schools by particular student groups that are difficult to reach and/or service, for example, improving access for students in rural and remote areas and for educationally disadvantaged students including Indigenous students and students with a disability.
- Developing strategies to maintain quality standards in VET in Schools, including professional development.
- Increasing participation in School-Based New Apprenticeships (in WA these are called School-Based Traineeships) and other trades-related vocational courses that relate to skills shortages.
- Addressing areas of skills shortage.
