Sydney Distance Education High School

It delivers individualised education programs to students in Years 7–12 whose special circumstances prevent them from attending regular schooling.

It also provides curriculum delivery to students in Years 9–12 studying a single subject not available at their home school.

It uses the decentralised model of distance education, where the form of teaching is determined based on a student's situation.

The school delivers educational services via digital methods, alongside traditional paper work distributed via mail.
