titleIn relation to the data collection for year 10 students and their plans for their next years' pathway, who should complete the Google form? Should it be sent to the student to complete in class, or should it go to the parent/carer to complete, together with the student?

With regard to the Google form for The Yr 10 Transition plan. This should ideally be filled out by students. A class setting would be best - preferably in a Home room class and/or during a Careers lesson. Depending on where your students, and their parents, are at with the pathway planning process, you may also consider producing a hardcopy of the form that could be sent home with students a night or two before they fill it in during class. This could initiate or continue parent/child discussions re. pathways and also keep parents in the loop.

titleCHECK - What do you do if a student is enrolled and being actively followed up on however it is time to submit the data and there is no transition information?

For students who have unenrolled the government is only after the blue information. 

For the student who is currently enrolled but disengaged, we would recommend using the Student Alert Letter as a template for informing the youth and their guardian of the obligations under the Education Act. 

CET YEET Student Alert Letter

But at the end of the day, if you are unable to get the transition information from the youth, you will functionally fill out the submission to the government with no transition information available and transition Plan Approved set to "No" as per the example below.
