HSP - Course Description

Our High School Preparation course is designed for students who wish to develop English skills needed to study in an Australian high school from grades 7 to 11. In this course, students learn English and the Australian school culture and curriculum.  Courses are structured in modules of 8 weeks, with the student completing a test at the end of each week to monitor student progress.

Our teachers have both the experience and qualifications for instructing overseas students for successful entry to high school. ABILITY Education’s Director of High School Preparation ensures ongoing communication with student’s parents (or other care-providers) about the young person’s progress.

Through their study of our college’s unique Pastoral Care program, students learn how to deal directly with personal, social and health related issues. The program focuses on developing students’ decision-making skills and the taking of personal responsibility for dealing with issues.

At ABILITY Education, we strongly believe this is the best high school preparation program available in Sydney. The students receive individual attention to ensure they reach the English level needed to enter their chosen Australian high school. Students at ABILITY Education will feel cared for, highly valued and part of the ‘ABILITY Family’.

We prepare each student fully for  an Australian high school, not only in terms of their English language skills but also their knowledge of key high school such subjects such as Science, Social Studies, Australian Studies, Mathematics and Geography. Students will advance their English language skills through developing their education in these important high school subjects.

ABILITY Education’s HSP program, just like a high school, has its rules and regulations that students must follow. This will prepare them for their future high school environment, giving them an understanding of their rights and responsibilities as a high school student. This will help them make an easier transition into the Australian public or private high school system.
