Opportunity Classes in NSW public primary schools cater for academically gifted Year 3 and Year 4 students with high potential. These classes help students learn by grouping them with students of similar ability, using specialised teaching methods and educational materials at the appropriate level. Getting into an opportunity class can assist students accelerate their learning; helping them then secure a coveted Selective School place.
Selective high schools are specifically designed to provide optimal learning conditions for gifted students. They do this by placing gifted students in a group with others so that learning can be more challenging and accelerated. This approach benefits the learning of students; increasing the chances that they will perform well in later schooling in tests such as the HSC.

We incorporate multiple choice practice and Selective Skills Test Practice weekly for all core Selective Skills Test Areas:

Our Resources map to the Australian
Curriculum, making sure students are working through the content that is really going to impact their experience in the classroom in a structured and strategic way.
Because we map to the curriculum you can be assured that the practice they put in through our OC and Selective School programs will help students see real results in the classroom.
We make sure we have enough work to stretch our students, so they feel challenged and motivated in their studies with video summaries, exam practice and extension work built in.
We only work with the best.
