Your education system, in brief
Canberra & the ACT
ACT Board of Senior Secondary Studies (BSSS)
Canberra and the ACT use a senior secondary system centred on college courses and continuous school-based assessment. Students pursuing a tertiary pathway may take the ACT Scaling Test (AST), which supports scaling. The AST is not a replacement for ongoing course assessment.

Learning support helps you understand a concept, plan your own response and practise the required skills. For school assessment, follow your school’s academic integrity rules. For exams, practise selecting relevant information, showing reasoning and allocating time to the demands of the question.

Questions families ask
Does tutoring replace my school program?
No. Learning support works alongside school. Your school and education authority set assessment and qualification requirements.
How do we choose the right support?
Share the year level, exact subject or test, and what feels difficult. We discuss a suitable starting point and confirm tutor availability before a commitment.
Prepare with a purpose
For ACT learners, preparation follows school-based assessment and the AST where relevant to their pathway.
Map the topics you need to revisit, practise explaining your working, review marked responses and build a realistic revision routine.
We’ll talk about school assessments, past papers, timed practice and areas where you need further support.
