Data from the Sydney Home Education Network suggests there are 43,000 students being homeschooled across Australia & rising. We have watched this trend unfold within our own organisation, with a growing number of parents reaching out looking for support for homeschooled students.

At Full Spectrum we have found even a short time with one of our qualified educators each week significantly boosts the effectiveness of subsequent parent delivered or self-guided learning. The benefits of an educator with experience can provide an outsized impact when delivered one on one. Our tailored plans allow our educators to work directly with parents, amplifying the teaching effectiveness of both!

If you are thinking about homeschooling but would like the support of an experienced teacher as well, we can help. Contact us today to learn more.

Sometimes parents or care workers reach out to us with unique or sensitive circumstances that require additional support. At Full Spectrum we collaborate with a range of special assistance programs that fund support for disadvantaged or troubled students. Providing these students with professional, experienced one-on-one support means we can adapt to each unique circumstance, tailoring our services to achieve the best results possible.

The ABC recently had the opportunity to give an inside look at two special schools that focus on providing education to those most at risk of falling through the cracks. This critical support structure is not well known & we feel it is important they receive recognition for the great work being done.
