DescriptionThe Standard Grade course in Social and Vocational Skills (SVS) develops practical, social and vocational skills necessary for adult life. It provides students with opportunities to apply their knowledge and skills in a variety of relevant circumstances: personal life, the family, the wider community, work and leisure.

SVS makes a significant contribution to preparing young people for work through developing skills including communication, numeracy, problem solving and working with others.
