Free Tutoring Available

Trinity College will offer students the opportunity to participate in a tutor programme as part of an initiative funded by the Federal Government to deliver additional targeted teaching support to students.

We are aware that all our students were (and continue to be) affected by consequences of remote learning as a result of COVID-19.

However, for this specific programme, we will use various data input, as well teacher advice, in the allocation of students to the tutor groups.

For semester 1, the programme will focus on supporting students in developing their English and Mathematics skills, with a focus on the senior end of the school.

The semester 2 programme will be altered slightly, depending on interest levels, with further details to be communicated with families towards the end of term 2. 

PLEASE NOTE THE TERM ONE PLACES HAVE BEEN FILLED DUE TO THE STRONG RESPONSE WE RECEIVED. A PARENT SURVEY WILL BE SHARED IN THE COMING WEEKS TO INVITE YOU TO NOMINATE YOUR CHILD FOR TUTORING IN TERM 2. FAMILIES THAT MISSED OUT ON POSITIONS IN TERM 1 WILL BE GIVEN PRIORITY.
