In Academic Mentoring, each Middle School student is provided with the opportunity to work with their dedicated Academic Mentoring teacher to reflect on their academic journey. Students focus on their organisation, timetable, study and thinking skills. They have on-going progress checks with their teacher who will assist develop achievable goals and an assessment planner with due dates. They will also continue their exploration of future careers and pathways to help understand meaning and purpose to their learning.
SSS empowers our Senior School students to make effective learning and assessment decisions, inspiring each to achieve success in their academic studies. Students engage with a range of learning activities and experiences to help them to develop into successful, confident learners. Dedicated sessions with their mentor, discussing specific and measurable academic goals to achieve including ATAR estimations, engaging in post-schooling pathway workshops presented by our Careers Counsellor, and invited external guest speakers are also key elements of the program. Students are also provided with tutorial opportunities where they can engage in unpacking subject matter questions, facilitated by expert teachers.
Our Academic Mentoring and Senior School Success Programs ensure that each student is equipped to successfully transition to their desired future pathway beyond Lourdes Hill College.
