Being taught by a specialist teacher from an early age has tangible benefits for students. This according to ACG Strathallan Dean of Year 7 and 8, Clinton Thomas, an educator with 15 years’ experience teaching and five years as a dean at the independent school in Karaka.

From the age of five, students at ACG Strathallan leave their main classroom to receive specialist subject teaching in Science, PE & Health, Mandarin, Music and Visual Art.

“Students need to be given opportunities to experience all areas of the curriculum such as arts, sports, sciences and main subjects such English and Maths so they can then make smart and informative choices around hobbies and careers,” he says.

Visit us at our open day between 9am - 11am on Tuesday, 25 June.
