Benedict Tutorial

The Benedict Tutorial Program is a short-term intervention offered across three Chifley College campuses; Mount Druitt, Dunheved, and Shalvey.

The program has been designed to support students with individual learning and behavioural needs by providing a small, supportive group environment that fosters both academic and personal growth.

The program focuses on developing social-emotional skills, positive behaviour, and academic learning, with an emphasis on literacy, numeracy, and social and emotional learning (SEL).

The main goal is to re-engage students in their education and help them achieve lasting success at school and beyond.
