Preferred term

alternative and second chance education  

Definition

  • Although alternative education and second chance education are frequently collapsed into one category, they are different in a number of significant ways and could rightly be separated into two distinct categories. Alternative education is defined by nontraditional approaches to learning and teaching that are seen to enrich the experiences of students.
