PRIMARY SCHOOL PROGRAMS
Our Primary Program Focus
Our Primary School programs are designed to build strong academic foundations while supporting confidence, independence, and effective learning habits. Programs are flexible and may be combined or adjusted based on a student’s needs, as determined through assessment.
Who Our Primary Programs Support
- Students who are finding learning challenging or need additional support
- Students working at grade level who would benefit from consolidation and confidence-building
- Gifted students seeking extension or enrichment
- Students who benefit from personalised teaching rather than one-size-fits-all instruction
- Students with diverse learning needs, including learning difficulties, neurodivergence, or disabilities
- Students developing independence, organisation, and learning confidence

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this just homework help?
Not at all. While we may support students with schoolwork, our focus is on building understanding, skills, and independence rather than simply completing homework or tasks.
How do parents stay informed?
Parents receive weekly feedback, free learning guides, semesterly reports, and an annual parent–tutor meeting. Communication is designed to keep parents informed without creating extra pressure.
Do you support students who are struggling as well as those needing extension?
Yes. We work with students across a wide range of abilities, including those who need additional support and those seeking extension or enrichment. Teaching is personalised to ensure appropriate challenge without overwhelm.
Are classes online or in-person?
We offer both online and in-person sessions. Delivery mode is discussed during the assessment process and selected based on the student’s needs, subject focus, and learning preferences.
Do you support children with additional learning needs?
Yes. We welcome children with diverse learning needs, including learning differences, neurodivergence, and physical or emotional needs that affect learning. Adjustments are discussed during the assessment process to ensure a supportive and positive experience.
How often are classes?
Our classes are usually delivered at a weekly level. Some students may benefit from more than one session per week, depending on their learning needs and goals.
How do I know which program is right for my child?
Program placement is based on developmental readiness rather than age. We offer a free assessment to understand your child’s current skills, confidence, and learning needs, and recommend the most suitable starting point. Children may move between or combine programs as they develop.
When can we enrol?
Enrolments are open year-round, subject to availability and assessment.
Do you offer 1:1 or small group sessions?
We offer both individual and small group sessions, depending on the program and what best supports your child’s learning.
What should students bring to sessions?
All learning materials are provided. From Year 3 onwards, we recommend that students bring an iPad, tablet or laptop to sessions to align with school learning practices and support the development of digital literacy and technology proficiency. Students may also bring a labelled water bottle or relevant school materials if required for the session. Any additional requirements will be clearly communicated in advance.
