Tutorials
We recognise the need for every student to have an adult who knows them well, and who can get to know the families well. We talk about the ‘holy trinity’ – Family / Student / Tutor relationship, and how important these are to ‘educationally powerful connections and relationships’ that will make a difference for the students.
What it looks like
Every teacher in has a Tutorial class.
Students tutor each other.
100 minutes, twice a week.
15/ 16 Students per tutorial
Tutor is available to advocate for the student.
No-one slips though the cracks.

Specialist
Subjects
Become the expert you need to be.
We describe the subjects as “Specialist” subjects because this is the time in the week when the students are taught explicitly the skills, knowledge and dispositions required to function fully in the specialist discipline areas. e.g. How do you investigate as a Mathematician or an artist? How do you become a scientist?
It’s not IF you are bright, it’s HOW you are bright.
