Back to School!

July 17, 2017

Term 3 is now upon us and as we spent this last weekend of the holidays doing last minute shopping for school supplies and preparing the school uniforms we ask the question: Are you and your child ready to start a new term? The start of term can be one of the most stressful times, one only has to visit the shopping centres and get amongst the chaos, where everyone is doing the same thing - preparing!Once the preparation is over, what comes next? A good start might be to look over the mid year

Term 3 is now upon us and as we spent this last weekend of the holidays doing last minute shopping for school supplies and preparing the school uniforms we ask the question: Are you and your child ready to start a new term? The start of term can be one of the most stressful times, one only has to visit the shopping centres and get amongst the chaos, where everyone is doing the same thing - preparing!
Once the preparation is over, what comes next? A good start might be to look over the mid year school reports. How has your child progressed? What areas do they need to improve in? When they walk into the classroom, no doubt their teacher will let their class know what they expect from their students and they will describe how they will measure their progress.
But what about each child as an individual? If you havn't done so already, now is a good time to revisit first semester school reports and sit down with your child and figure out together, what they would like to achieve? What areas do they feel they struggle with? How can they could improve? Why do this, you may ask? Well, with your help of course, it puts them in charge of how they spend their time and sets up ways for which they can improve. So that at the end of the year, they can see how much they have achieved and how much they have improved. It is simply a way to give them the confidence and take charge of their learning, rather than feeling like they are going to school because - they have to!
We at Intuition Educational Support wish parents and students all the very best for Term 3. If you find, that your child needs catch up, keep up or be enriched, Intuition Educational Support provides tailor made tuition that recognises and optimises full learning potential. We offer one-on-one or small group tuition for all ages, across all subjects. We still have places available for term 3 for all WACE subjects - now is the time to really buckle down and get the best support available to help year 12's achieve their highest potential for the WACE exams.
We also have places for our small groups for year 5 students planning to sit the GATE exams in 2018, what we have found is that preparation is key to optimising full learning potential especially for such high stakes tests such as GATE. Our year 4 group programmes are also focusing on preparation for up and coming Primary Extension and Challenge (
PEAC )
testing. Being accepted into PEAC programmes are often a great start for children wishing to enter into selective schools testing later. Contact us today to enquire about our term 3 programmes today.
