COURSE DESCRIPTION
Our STAR (Secondary Tertiary Alignment Resource) courses are available to secondary school students who seek to improve their skills and gain unit standards. Small class sizes, tailored learning plans and one-on-one mentoring are designed to encourage students to re-engage with the learning process. Education gaps and learning styles are identified and students work towards individually set goals. Classes are delivered using a hands-on learning approach to inspire confidence by doing.
