The
Travel Education Framework (TEF) (docx - 9.39mb) is a resource for specialist schools to create a program that gives students the knowledge, skills and confidence to travel independently to school on public transport.
The TEF is suitable for students from upper primary to year 12. Progression through the program depends on each student’s own rate of development.
Under the TEF, only students identified with the appropriate physical, cognitive and emotional capacity will progress to advanced travel education and be taught to become an independent traveller.
