NRL School to Work
NRL School to Work is a program focused on eduation and employment support for young indigenous people
For many years, the programme has helped support students transition from school to further study, training or meaningful employment with work experience, mentoring and leadership opportunities.
We proudly support NRL School to Work, providing employment opportunities directly through the programme, helping to support educational events for students and engaging in fundraiser events.
The NRL utilises the positive profile of the game of Rugby League to support young Indigenous Australians with work experience, mentoring and leadership opportunities to ensure they successfully complete school and transition into further study, training or meaningful employment.
The School to Work (S2W) Program was developed in response to research highlighting that Indigenous youth who had not found an employment or training pathway six months after leaving school, had a significantly higher chance of being long term unemployed.
