SHORT STUDY PROGRAMS

Focus provides short study programs for overseas students over the age of 10. Our course content is rich in choice, flexible in arrangement, and filled with experiences unique to Australia. We can also tailor the learning experience according to the size and needs of the study groups.

Our school is located in Melbourne, Victoria’s capital, well-known for being the "Education Capital of Australia". Aside from providing an English curriculum that is government recognized and especially tailored for junior and senior high school students, our programs also include topics such as STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics), camping and outdoor education, specialized sports training, art courses, Australian cultural experiences, tours of local middle school and universities, and immersive study experiences in local schools.

Families participating in special parent-child groups can also choose to include personalized travel itineraries to visit major cities and scenic spots throughout Australia.
