In a world defined by increased competition, education goes a long way towards creating opportunity. Maths Words Not Squiggles helps children to achieve government-based opportunity class placement through personalised primary school tutoring. Opportunity classes in NSW are highly competitive and available in a number of select NSW primary schools.<\/p>\n
While these classes are not suited to everyone, they provide an amazing opportunity for gifted children who are looking for a rich and intellectually stimulating educational environment.<\/p>\n
Maths Words Not Squiggles is a modern learning centre for students in primary school and high school. We deliver tailored learning solutions to build confidence and meet testing standards. All course material is planned using the Australian curriculum set by NESA, and all lessons are available both privately and in small productive groups.<\/p>\n
We put theory into practice every day in order to transform the learning experience and achieve amazing results. While there are many ways for young children to grow in order to meet the demands of the modern world, an opportunity class provides a well-defined pathway towards future fulfilment and success.<\/p>\n
What is an Opportunity Class?<\/h2>\n
An opportunity class (also known as OC or OC class) is offered by select government schools across NSW. These classes cater to academically gifted and talented children in Years 5 and 6 and are designed to enhance the learning process. Opportunity classes have a long and proud history in NSW education, with the first classes established in 1932. There are currently 75 primary schools with opportunity classes across NSW, with parents typically applying during Year 4 to enter a one or two-year placement program.<\/p>\n
Gifted children are often bored at school, which can lead to disengagement and underperformance over time. For the right children, being in an OC will provide challenges and opportunities to stay engaged and interested during this crucial phase of development. While an OC is not a formal pathway to a selective high school, it provides a competitive and stimulating environment where children can thrive and grow to reach their full potential.<\/p>\n
The Application Process<\/h2>\n
The application process for opportunity classes is administered by the High Performing Students Team at the NSW Department of Education. Along with opportunity class placement, the team are also responsible for selective high school placement. Opportunity class placement is challenging and highly competitive, which is why we offer a proven and comprehensive preparation course.<\/p>\n
There are several ways an OC can be administered in schools, with the individual program affecting the application process. For example, there is a Year 5 opportunity class, a Year 6 opportunity class, and a Year 5\/6 composite opportunity class. In addition, there may be a chance to enter a composite class consisting of opportunity class and non-opportunity class students.<\/p>\n
The application process consists of the following steps:<\/p>\n
- \n
- \n
- 1. Fill out an \u2018intention to apply\u2019 form from your current primary school.<\/ul>\n
- \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 7. Receive a confirmation email and check your details.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The Selection Process<\/h2>\n
The selection process for an NSW opportunity class is based on academic merit, which is demonstrated by a calculated placement score. The score is used to compare individual students, and is a combination of moderated school assessment scores from Year 4 and possibly Year 3, and scaled results from the Opportunity Class Placement Test.<\/p>\n
School assessment scores are provided for English and mathematics for all students from each primary school. Opportunity test results are determined for English, mathematics, and general ability. Both selection components play a crucial role, with separate scores scaled using the mean and standard deviation from all of the candidates.<\/p>\n
There is a selection committee for each school with an opportunity class in NSW, with each placement decision made using identical criteria. Each candidate from a primary school is placed in order of merit based on the relative gaps between students. In addition, a process of moderation is used to adjust scores in a fair and consistent way based on the fact that each school has different assessment methods and marking standards.<\/p>\n
The final selection is based on the overall placement score, which is a mark out of 300. The scaled OC test comprises 200 of these marks, with the scaled school assessment score comprising 100. In terms of the individual test components, English makes up 100 of the 300 marks, mathematics makes up another 100, and general ability makes up the final 100.<\/p>\n
While English and mathematics are measured equally between the opportunity class test score and school assessment score, the lack of a general ability score in the school assessment gives a weighted bias to the OC test in terms of overall importance.<\/p>\n
The selection committee makes decisions independently based on identical criteria. Along with test and assessment scores, the following factors may be taken into account:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Illness and misadventure requests<\/li>\n
- Disability, including medical conditions and behavioural disorders<\/li>\n
- Matters that affect the usual age range<\/li>\n
- Consideration to students who are from Aboriginal communities, are Torres Strait Islanders, or are educated in<\/li>\n
- English for less than 48 months<\/li>\n
- Other evidence of academic merit<\/li>\n
- Offers and reserve places based on the vacancies available<\/li>\n
- Any other relevant factors<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The OC Placement Test<\/h2>\n
The Opportunity Class Placement Test is held in designated test centres each year, with results combined with moderated school assessment scores to get a well-rounded representation of each student. Parents are notified of their closest test centre location through a Test authority letter. Students must sit the test at the authorised test centre location on the designated test date.<\/p>\n
The OC placement test is written by the Australian Council for Educational Research (ACER). It is a secure test, which means papers can\u2019t be viewed before or after the test session. Much like an IQ test, the opportunity class test is designed to measure ability rather than performance on the school curriculum. There are two parts to the test, each of which is 30 minutes long and includes 35 multiple-choice questions in English, mathematics, and general ability.<\/p>\n
Maths Words Not Squiggles provides free diagnostic assessment in order to tailor the learning experience. Each student is given a benchmark to measure their achievements against our internal curriculum tracker. Experienced instruction and personalised lessons are then applied to help the student get ready for the OC Placement Test. While the testing procedure provides a clear gateway for selection, some students can find the process-intensive and stressful if they don\u2019t have the preparation and guided tuition.<\/p>\n
Placement Offers<\/h2>\n
Placement offers are made each year according to the assessment and test results. Information is sent to parents, with the email consisting of an offer, a place on the reserve list, or an unsuccessful placement attempt. In addition, parents will have access to their child\u2019s placement score out of 300, along with individual scores for the OC test and school assessment.<\/p>\n
Parents are able to select two preferred schools during their initial application, with a decision made based on scores and qualification criteria. If the student receives an offer for their second choice, they may be placed on the reserve list for their first choice. Students are placed in rank order of their placement scores to fill the available vacancies at each school.<\/p>\n
NSW Schools Offering OC<\/h2>\n
There are 75 schools offering an OC, with schools located across the state of NSW. The Department of Education publishes the minimum entry scores for opportunity class placement at each school. The minimum entry score is the score of the lowest scoring student to accept a place at a particular school, with minimum entry scores varying from school to school and year to year.<\/p>\n
The minimum entry score is not an indicator of the relative performance of the primary school, with parents also advised to consider additional factors such as the curriculum offered at each school and the travelling times and transport available to the student.
