Burwood Students and Local Schools
The most common things we see from Burwood families are requests for HSC Maths Advanced, English Standard and Chemistry support, alongside a strong demand for selective school preparation. Burwood sits within the Inner West corridor, close to Strathfield, Homebush and Croydon, and many families here are also considering entry to selective schools such as James Ruse Agricultural High or Sydney Boys High, which draw students from across the region.
Local schools we hear about most often from Burwood families include Burwood Girls High School, PLC Sydney, Trinity Grammar School (Summer Hill), Burwood Public School and Strathfield South High School. Stage 4 (Years 7-8) and Stage 5 (Years 9-10) students regularly seek help consolidating the NSW Syllabus foundations before tackling Stage 6 and the HSC. Primary students from Years 3 to 6 frequently need NAPLAN preparation or Opportunity Class (OC) readiness work ahead of the Year 4 OC placement test.
