Frequently
asked questions
Who attends Mt Hobson Academy?
We are a co-educational school for boys and girls in Years 1-10 (generally aged 5-14). Students of all ability levels excel in our school. The current group of students has a wide range of ability levels from students achieving through to students with learning difficulties.
The key is that we are able to help all students through the combination of:
- Small school size.
- Small class size.
- Split day structure to suit subject timetable.
- The care and professionalism from each staff member.
Students must be prepared to learn in English and this provides a limit to the number of international students who attend.
How structured is the learning environment?
Refer to our Teacher or parent-led page for more details.
External sports and cultural/service groups are accommodated.
What is the enrolment procedure?
After an application is received, a time is made to meet the student. Parents are able to make an appointment prior to sending in an application if they prefer. The Principal/Academic Manager meets the student and discusses the style of learning with the parents and student. An offer of place letter is then sent out with a form asking for acceptance.
