SIDE provides students with the opportunity to study subjects not offered at their base school. While students remain enrolled at their base school, they register with SIDE for individual subjects as required.
This arrangement applies in circumstances such as:
- the unavailability of specialist teachers
- student transitions between schools
- timetabling constraints within a school
Where students have special circumstances and needs, they may be eligible for our Referral Program.
Enrolment is dependent upon:
- SIDE’s capacity to deliver the course
- the base school determining the level of student access to SIDE that is appropriate
All schools enrolling students with SIDE must adhere to the conditions set out in the School Partnerships – Service Provision document.
Schools are also required to appoint a to assist students with the management of their learning program.

Student Health Summary
To ensure we support your students effectively, SIDE requires a Student Health Care Summary for any student with a health condition, disability, or medical concern.
A separate form must be submitted for each enrolled SIDE student at your school with a health condition, disability, or medical concern. It’s quick to complete and asks for basic details such as the student’s name, year level, school region, school name, and information about specific health conditions, disabilities, or medical needs.
