YEAR 10 COURSES
Year 10 marks a pivotal stage for students as they gear up for the demanding, independent study required in Years 11 and 12. Our Year 10 EMS course is designed to help students achieve their key learning objectives, ensuring they transition into their senior years with confidence and a solid foundation.
What make us different?
Our Years 7–10 courses are designed as a connected learning journey, helping students build the English, Maths and Science foundations needed for Stage 5, Year 11 and future HSC preparation.
Students are introduced to key concepts before they encounter them at school, giving them more time to understand, practise and gain confidence in class.
Students revisit important skills through classroom lessons, homework, revision and Cyberschool resources, helping them move from basic understanding to confident application.
Through our LMS system, students and parents can better understand progress, strengths and areas that need further improvement, with learning data used to support more targeted guidance.
Our small group learning environment allows teachers to support students more closely, while additional practice, homework, revision materials and online learning support help learning continue beyond weekly lessons.
New College builds balanced academic strength across the core subjects from the start of high school, with Elite and Advanced Maths pathways for students ready for greater challenge.
