How does TSS promote independence and cater for students as young adults?

March 15, 2021

TSS has a ‘young adult ethos’ that is designed to promote independence and encourage students to take increasing responsibility in the management of their studies and their responsibilities. Students are supported to develop time management and planning skills that support them to achieve their goals. Along with the independence afforded to TSS students, there are clear responsibilities that are monitored and checked by the TSS staff.
