Year 4 Courses
Unlock the potential of your mind with our Thinking Skills Course, a dual-faced program crafted to develop your cognitive abilities in both mathematical reasoning and critical thinking.
A variety of challenging problem-solving and critical thinking skills questions are covered in the course. Students build their ability to use knowledge, facts, and data to find a problem and its solution. Critical thinking questions will improve their ability to reason through an argument logically, draw a conclusion, assess a situation, recognise assumptions, and evaluate arguments.

The Critical Thinking Skills module is all about nurturing a questioning mind. Students will learn to evaluate arguments, identify logic, and construct well-reasoned conclusions. We encourage learners to think beyond the surface, to question, and to engage with ideas at a deeper level. The module goes beyond academic skills; it’s about fostering a lifelong ability to think clearly, reason effectively, and make informed decisions.

Problem-solving skills empower students to tackle academic and real-life challenges confidently. Recognising and defining problems is the first step, followed by using analytical skills to break down complex concepts into manageable parts. Strategic planning helps structure approaches for solving equations, and applying relevant formulas, theorems, and techniques is essential for effective solution implementation.
Face-to-face lessons offer a dynamic, interactive educational experience, fostering direct engagement with experienced educators and peers. These sessions encourage active participation, critical thinking, and collaborative learning, tailored to nurture each student’s curiosity and academic growth. With a focus on personalised instruction and real-time feedback, our approach enhances understanding, builds confidence.

What is Cyberschool?
Cyberschool (www.cyberschool.com.au) is an online educational platform that provides tailored learning for Pre-Uni students enrolled in our foundation courses. This platform is a source of supplementary resources, providing students with assistance with homework and in-class tasks. Students enrolled at Pre-Uni New College receive complimentary access to engaging, activity-oriented lessons designed by skilled and experienced teachers.
What is S.O.Q?
Special Online Quiz (SOQ) is an online review quiz strategically designed to motivate students to revisit fundamental concepts covered in earlier modules. SOQ is made available on Cyberschool during weeks 2, 4, 6 and 8 of the term. Please note that SOQ is only available to students enrolled in a foundations course.
Will students see their teachers during online lessons?
Students should be able to see their teacher during the live online session. In addition to ensuring students maintain their cameras during class, teachers also have access to screen-sharing features, enabling students to observe content presented by teachers in real time.
Since classes are online, is it possible to join other online classes outside a student’s scheduled class?
Due to a restricted capacity for each class, it is necessary for students to participate in their assigned session.
How do teachers ensure that kids are focused whilst learning?
Educators utilise various methods to maintain student engagement during online video lessons.This includes incorporating interactive learning exercises which prompts students to tackle questions in real time. It is important to note that parental support is essential when students engage in self-directed learning.
I’m not able to travel to the branch (or live outside NSW), is there an option of remote learning?
We provide remote or online alternatives based on the specific requirements of our students. Our regular foundation courses are conducted through live online sessions using platforms like Zoom, while our Cyber Course is accessible through our Cyberschool platform.
My child is enrolled in WEMT. What is the recommended online learning routine my child should follow?
Throughout the week, students are anticipated to finalise all the questions within the modules. If they feel the need for additional module clarification, they can utilise the Cyberschool video lessons to revisit module concepts and questions.
