How Matrix helps your child stay confident,
challenged,
and ahead in Maths

1. Keep your child challenged and engaged

Many advanced students feel unchallenged at school. Our acceleration pathway keeps curiosity alive and learning stimulating by helping students move up to 12 months ahead with structured teacher guidance.

2. Build mastery early with structure and support

Students prepare for HSC Extension 1 a year early and develop deep understanding through guided lessons and expert feedback. This builds confidence without unnecessary pressure.

3. Learn alongside high-achieving peers

In small, selective classes, your child learns with motivated peers who share the same curiosity and goals. This environment helps students stay confident and accountable.

4. Learn from expert Math teachers

Matrix teachers are subject specialists who make advanced concepts clear. They guide students through acceleration at a balanced and sustainable pace that promotes long-term learning.

5. Structured progression that builds confidence

Each term builds on the last to ensure strong foundations and readiness for advanced study. Students progress confidently because their learning is planned and purposeful.

6. A proven pathway trusted by 8000+ students each year

With over two decades of experience supporting advanced learners, Matrix helps students accelerate safely and approach the HSC with confidence.

  • My son attended the Matrix Year 11 Chemistry course and by all reports it was a great idea to do this. The quality of the instruction and texts made available to him were very helpful and have given him a real head start for the year. He will no doubt be doing more Matrix courses in the future.

Frequently asked questions

Maths Acceleration Program at Matrix

Some NSW schools offer accelerated Mathematics courses for students. Accelerating in Mathematics means completing HSC Mathematics a year early.

The Matrix Maths Acceleration courses follow a structured, term-by-term program which prepares students to complete HSC Mathematics Advanced and Mathematics Extension 1 in Year 11. Year 7 and 8 students are challenged with advanced concepts, with Year 9 students completing both the Year 9 and Year 10 Maths content in one year.

Students who complete HSC Mathematics Advanced and Mathematics Extension 1 in Year 11 gain more time in Year 12 for other subjects or revision. They gain early experience in HSC-style questions, and build a deep understanding and confidence for Mathematics Extension 2.

The Maths Acceleration program is designed for high-achieving students in Years 7 to 10 who are ready to fast-track their learning. If your child is motivated, confident, and has exceptional Maths abilities, this program is for you. Students who aim to complete HSC Mathematics Advanced and Extension 1 in Year 11 are also encouraged to apply.

The Maths Acceleration Program is a rigorous, selective academic program designed for high-performing students who are ready to be challenged beyond their school curriculum. The normal Matrix Maths course teaches students one term ahead, while the Maths Acceleration program fast-tracks students through the Year 7 to 10 content to prepare them to complete the HSC Mathematics Advanced and Mathematics Extension 1 courses in Year 11.

Students can apply for the Maths Acceleration program at any time. The Maths Acceleration placement test is held every two weeks at select campuses.

Enrolments for Matrix courses close in Week 3 of the Matrix term. If your child is accepted to the Maths Acceleration course after this date, they will join us the following term.

Students can prepare for the entry test by:

  • Revising key topics from their Matrix Maths Course or school curriculum.
  • Practising problem-solving and time management with exam style questions.
  • Enroling in a Matrix holiday course for rigorous revision and further support.

Our Matrix Academic Team will contact you regarding how to support your child to help them qualify in the future. Students are encouraged to join the term, holiday, or online Maths course to build strong problem-solving skills through structured lessons and marked homework. Students can re-apply at a later date.

The Maths Acceleration program is available at a majority of our Matrix campuses. It is currently offered as an on-campus class only. Class availability can be found on the Maths Acceleration Course pages.

At the conclusion of the Year 10 Maths Acceleration course, students will be enroled in a Year 11 Maths Acceleration course which covers the Year 12 Mathematics Advanced and Mathematics Extension 1 content. These classes are separate to current Year 12 students.
