🏫 For Year 6 students starting Year 7

Give your child the confidence and tools to thrive from Day 1 of high school.

The Year 7 transition is harder than most parents expect.

New teachers, new subjects, new routines, new friendships — and suddenly a whole lot more independence expected of your child than they've ever had before.

Many Year 6 students start high school feeling overwhelmed, underprepared and anxious. And many parents feel helpless watching it happen, unsure how to support without overstepping.

Headstart to High School was built to change that. It's a 20-week self-paced online program designed to give students and families everything they need to make the transition smooth, confident and even exciting.

  • Your child feels nervous or anxious about starting high school
  • You're worried they'll struggle with the jump in workload and expectations
  • You want them to start Year 7 organised, confident and ready
  • You're looking for practical support beyond what the school provides

Questions parents ask us.

When should we start the program?

Ideally in Term 3 or 4 of Year 6, so your child completes it before high school begins. However it's valuable at any point — even after Year 7 has started.

How long does each module take?

Most modules take 10 to 15 minutes to complete. Because it's self-paced, your child can work through one module a week or move faster if they choose.

Is it suitable for all students?

Yes. The program is designed for all Year 6 students, including those with ADHD, anxiety or learning differences. The content is accessible, engaging and practical.

What device do they need?

Any device with internet access — laptop, tablet or phone. The program is fully mobile-friendly and accessible anywhere, anytime.

Is this different from the school's transition program?

Yes. School programs are usually brief and group-based. Headstart to High School goes much deeper, covering topics schools rarely have time for, with dedicated parent support alongside it.

What if we're already MYM tutoring students?

For $99, your child gets 20 weeks of everything they need to start Year 7 with confidence, clarity and excitement instead of anxiety.
