520 8  Disengagement of youth from schooling is an issue of 
       significant national and international concern, and is a 
       key driver of educational policy and reform that look to 
       maximise school retention for the benefit of both students
       and the wider community. In Australia, Flexible Learning 
       Options (FLOs) have arisen as a response to the premature 
       disengagement from schooling of a sizeable number of 
       Australian youth. FLOs attend to the educational, social 
       and well-being needs of young people experiencing complex 
       life circumstances, yet empirical evidence of their value 
       to date has been largely anecdotal. The significance of 
       this book lies in its innovative approach to gauging the 
       value of FLOs - to young people themselves, as well as the
       wider Australian community. Drawing on past research and 
       new findings from a national investigation, the authors 
       provide novel insight into the pressures pushing young 
       people out of schools and the mechanisms at work in FLOs 
       to re-engage them in education. The varied contributions 
       of this book elucidate many of the measurable impacts of 
       FLOs on the life trajectories of disenfranchised youth, 
       including improved economic integration, mental and 
       emotional wellbeing, and myriad other outcomes. The 
       significance of this project lies in its exploration of 
       how young people and staff understand the transformative 
       nature of the FLO experience, with an analysis that brings
       to light the wider value of this type of educational 
       intervention in terms of long term community benefit.
