Our high rates of top-level English HSC results are based on solid work on building strong skills, habits of wide reading and deliberate development of thinking and discussion skills in our students.
We challenge students to think creatively and solve problems – these abilities are central to success in our current education system and are of crucial importance in preparing children for success in the modern world.
Strong HSC results begin with students engaging effectively with a wide range of texts from primary school years.
Parents wanting to extend their child’s confidence, enjoyment and success in English, should choose a teacher/mentor who will connect with the child and lead them forward so that they are excited about learning and immerse themselves in reading, writing and discussing ideas.
As students progress through High School, we extend their skills and understanding as appropriate to their years and maturity.
We have a strong focus on developing the student’s understanding of the social relevance of the texts and issues studied and we encourage the discussion of current social issues.
Once students reach Senior High School, we ensure that they are working with experienced senior teachers most of whom are HSC markers. Several of our senior teachers are or have been university lecturers.

Lessons are held online, in your home, in the teacher’s home, public spaces such as libraries.
We work with small selected groups or individual students, this allows us to connect with the children in our care and to enhance their individual progress.
We have had a lot of success in recent years with small group lessons held in family homes. Students from the local area can then avoid driving long distances and can work in a friendly, relaxed environment.
The host parent receives a discounted rate as thanks for sharing their home. The teacher drives to the home and this cuts stress, traffic congestion and frustration for all involved.

Arrendell Secondary Education Centre is made up of a team of skilled, experienced teachers. Our backgrounds range from Primary and Infant teachers, Remedial specialists: ESL teachers, Experienced Senior High School teachers, and HSC markers.
We have access to the shared experience of teachers who have written the current syllabus, English Head Teachers, teachers who have had significant roles with student welfare, and teachers experienced in dealing with multicultural issues.
These skills and strengths are shared with the families who work with us.
One of the most important reasons behind our students’ success in nearly 50 years of operation, is the care we take to discover students’ individual needs and our efforts to place them with the right teacher.
Children come in all shapes and sizes, and their abilities and dreams are diverse. While the school education system and school teachers have attempted to make learning more student-centred, they are limited by the sheer volume and diversity of children in a class.
