​​​​Student Engagement Hub

Mabel Park State High School has an incredible Student Engagement Hub (SEH) designed to support students in their learning journey. Our SEH is made up of three 'Pods' of staff to support the 7-8, 9-10, and 11-12 year cohorts.

Each Pod is comprised of a Head of Department, Guidance Officer and Youth Worker.

Our SEH also has a FlexiSpace, which provides the highest quality teaching, learning and support in a bespoke learning environment embedded within the school. The aim of our FlexiSpace is to support the engagement and academic outcomes of students who may be experiencing disengagement.

For more information on Youth Engagement and FlexiSpaces, please visit advancingeducation.qld.gov.au/youth-engagement/supporting-students.
