Help Your Year 6 Child
Step Into High School Feeling Ready
A short, practical course that helps parents consolidate the key maths concepts
so their child enters Year 7 with confidence - with access right up until Day 1 of Term 1.
The jump into Year 7 maths can feel overwhelming - but it doesn’t have to.
One of the biggest worries parents have during the Year 6 → Year 7 transition is the sudden increase in new maths content.
The truth is: high school builds directly on a handful of core concepts from Year 6.
When those foundations feel steady, the transition becomes much smoother.
This short course helps you make sure your child is ready.
The essential concepts your child needs
for a confident start to Stage 4 maths
Revisit the key building blocks that matter most for Year 7 success:
Place value & number sense
Whole‑number and decimal operations
Fractions (equivalence, simplifying, operations)
Order of operations
Percentages
Introductory algebraic thinking
Self‑paced, you can choose which topics matter most for your child. Each topic includes short, parent‑friendly videos, clear explanations, and simple ways to practice at home - all designed to build confidence without pressure.
You can dip in and out, revisit sections over Term 4 and the Christmas holidays, or focus on the areas that need the most attention.
Flexible and practical, it's built to fit real family life, with access up until Day 1 of Term 1 (Feb 3, 2027).
Strong Year 6 foundations makes
Year 7 maths manageable
Stage 4 maths moves quickly.
Students who enter with solid foundations feel more confident, participate more, and avoid the negative maths mindset that can appear early in high school.
This gives you the tools to support your child now, so they walk into Year 7 feeling prepared, capable, and steady.

Designed for Year 6 parents who want to:

Is this suitable for all Year 6 students?
Yes. This course is designed for all Year 6 students, regardless of whether they’re confident or need a little extra support. The videos are short, practical, and easy to revisit, and you can choose the topics that matter most for your child.
What if my child isn't working at the Year 6 level yet?
If your child isn’t quite at the Year 6 level, that’s completely okay - every child moves at their own pace. Book a call with me and we can chat about where they’re currently sitting and what the most helpful next steps would be.
Does this mean more screen time for my child?
No. This course is designed for you, not for your child to sit and watch. The videos are short, parent‑friendly explanations to help you understand the key concepts and how to support them at home. The practice happens offline - through simple conversations, quick activities, and everyday moments. Your child won’t be spending extra time on a screen at all.
Do I need any special resources?
No. You won’t need any special materials to use this course. Everything is designed to be simple, practical, and easy to do at home with what you already have. A notebook, some scrap paper, and everyday items around the house are more than enough. If a concept benefits from a visual model, I’ll show you how to create it quickly using things like counters, pasta pieces, or small objects - nothing fancy required.
How long does the course take?
There are 6 key topics - 15 short videos, all with varying lengths - so you can work through the course entirely at your own pace.
