Year 7-9 Maths Enrichment

✦✦

Core Highlights

Key Features of Austin Education's Year 7-9 Maths Enrichment:

Progressive Curriculum, Early Transition to VCE Difficulty

• The Y7-9 mathematics curriculum progressively aligns with VCE-level difficulty, ensuring that students have a solid mathematical foundation before entering Y10 and can easily handle high school courses.
• The depth of knowledge is higher than that of regular schools, focusing not only on consolidating the basics but also on cultivating advanced thinking. This approach enhances students’ competitiveness in math competitions, scholarship exams, and other academic challenges.

Strengthen Problem-Solving Logic and Enhance Mathematical Thinking

• The curriculum includes comprehensive exercises and math competition training, focusing on developing problem-solving thinking rather than just “solving problems.”
• For example, in “Sequences & Algebra Applications,” we go beyond basic calculations to include arithmetic and geometric sequences, mixed operations, and word problems, helping students grasp the underlying mathematical logic.

Exam Techniques and Structured Answering Training

• VCE Mathematics places strong emphasis on clear, structured solutions with complete working steps. At Austin, we begin cultivating proper answering habits from Years 7–9 to ensure students avoid losing marks unnecessarily in future exams.
• Many students with strong mathematical skills from overseas struggle initially in Australia—not because of their thinking ability, but because their answer formats do not meet exam standards. Austin’s targeted training helps students adapt to the Australian assessment system, ensuring steady and reliable improvement in their scores.

Dual Strengthening in Mathematics and English for Comprehensive Academic Growth

• Mathematics: Incorporates Olympiad-style thinking training from Years 7–9, helping students build broader and deeper mathematical understanding.
• English: Goes beyond basic language skills by developing academic English proficiency, enabling students to clearly articulate mathematical reasoning and problem-solving processes in English

Multiple Class Types + Expert Academic Team = Maximum Learning Efficiency

• Our highly experienced academic team — including senior day school teachers and official VCAA examiners — collaboratively design all course content to ensure students are learning the most accurate, effective, and exam-relevant material.
• We offer a range of class types: large, medium, and small classes (fewer than 8 students) to provide personalised guidance and targeted support for each student's specific areas of improvement.
