School Holiday Courses
Structured Holiday Programs for Primary and High School Students
Phoenix Education’s School Holiday Courses are intensive, structured programs designed to help students revise, consolidate, and get ahead during the school break. Unlike regular term classes, our holiday programs focus on accelerated learning, exam readiness, and targeted skill development in a short, focused timeframe.

Why Holiday Courses Work
School holidays provide a unique opportunity for focused learning. Without daily homework and competing assessments, students can strengthen key skills in a concentrated environment.
Students who develop structured mathematical thinking early are better able to:
Revise important concepts without time pressure
Address learning gaps before they compound
Strengthen exam technique
Gain exposure to higher-level questions
Build confidence before the next school term
Small Group Structure for Maximum Impact
All Phoenix Education holiday courses operate with a maximum of six students per class.
Small class sizes allow teachers to:
Explain their reasoning
Show clear working
Interpret worded questions carefully
Identify misunderstandings quickly
Provide individualised feedback
Adjust pacing based on student needs
Support weaker areas without slowing stronger students
Maintain a focused and productive learning environment
Holiday courses are structured, purposeful, and results-driven.
