The bridge year, done properly.

Year 7 is where primary-school maths and science habits have to grow up fast. Students meet algebra for the first time, start reasoning formally about geometry and probability, and move from describing the world in Science to investigating it — planning experiments, analysing data and building evidence-based arguments.

Because so much of Year 7 is foundational for Years 8–10, gaps that open here tend to compound. Our Year 7 program is built to close them early: each term’s tutoring is mapped to what’s actually being taught in WA classrooms that term, so sessions reinforce school learning instead of running on a separate track.

This page focuses on Mathematics and Science specifically. English, Humanities and other Year 7 subjects are tutored through our broader Secondary Tutoring program (Years 7–10).

Who this program suits

  1. Students moving from Year 6 who want a confident start to secondary maths & science
  2. Students who are managing but want to build genuine fluency, not just keep up
  3. Students who’ve fallen behind on a specific topic, such as algebra or fractions
  4. Families wanting an SCSA-aligned check-in alongside school, term by term

The bridge year, done properly.

Both subjects are organised around WA’s four-term school year, so tutoring tracks what’s happening in the classroom. Toggle between Mathematics and Science below.

Term order reflects a common WA scope & sequence. We confirm and adjust against your child’s actual class program in the first session.

How we actually run a lesson.

Every Year 7 Maths and Science session follows the same six-step structure, so students always know what’s coming and tutors can track progress consistently from week to week.

Step 1

📋 Plan

We check in on what’s happening in class and set the goal for the session.

Step 2
📖 Teach

The tutor introduces or re-explains the concept with clear, worked examples.

Step 3
💡 Apply

The student works through guided questions with support and scaffolding.

Step 4
✏️ Practise

Targeted, independent exercises build fluency and confidence.

Step 5
✅ Review

We check understanding, identify gaps and give specific feedback.

Step 6

🎯 Refine

The next session is adjusted based on what we learned about your child.

What makes this program different.

Small groups, maximum 6

One-to-one or capped small-group sessions, so the tutor genuinely knows where each student is up to — not just what topic the class is on.

Term-mapped, not generic

Each term’s content is built around what’s actually being taught in WA Year 7 classrooms, so tutoring reinforces school rather than running on a separate track.

Maths & Science specific tutors

Your child works with a tutor who specialises in that subject’s content and exam style at Year 7–10 level, not a generalist covering everything.

Everything beyond the weekly session.

Diagnostic assessment

A baseline check at the start of term so we know exactly where to begin.

Progress reports

Plain-English updates each term on strengths, gaps and what's next.

SCSA-aligned worksheets

Branded, term-specific worksheets your child keeps for revision.

Flexible scheduling

Weekly online or in-person sessions around Perth, with make-up options.

Real WA classrooms, real Year 7 curriculum — not a generic worksheet pack.

Simple, transparent term pricing.

One flat rate per subject, with a clear saving when you bundle Mathematics and Science together.

Single Subject

Mathematics or Science

$400 / term

$40 per class

Maths + Science Bundle

Both subjects, one enrolment

$700 / term

≈ $35 per class

Pricing based on a standard 10-week WA school term ($40 per 1-hour class). Term fees can be split into instalments — ask us when you enrol.

Year 7 program FAQs.

Q.

Can my child do Mathematics and Science together, or only one?

Either works. Many families start with one subject and add the second once they see how sessions run. Each subject is tutored separately so the focus stays sharp.

Q.

Will this follow what my child's actual school is teaching?

We map each term to a typical WA Year 7 scope and sequence, then adjust in the first session against your child's actual class program and any current assessment dates.

Q.

What if my child is ahead, or behind, the term topics shown here?

The diagnostic assessment at the start picks this up. We can move faster through familiar material or spend longer consolidating a weaker topic before progressing.
