Formerly Educate Academy. Bandsix was founded on a simple conviction: every HSC student deserves support that is genuinely built around them — their school, their syllabus, their ambitions and their learning style. Today that support comes in two forms.
The AI Study Copilot gives every student instant essay marking, NESA-aligned feedback, guides to the 2027 HSC English texts, quote recall and The Professor. Start a free trial.
Bandsix Academy 1:1 Tuition pairs students with mentors who achieved 99+ ATARs and state ranks, in person in Double Bay or online. Across 50+ students mentored, 90% have achieved Band 6. See how tuition works.
Before any tutoring begins, we assess each student's current performance and pinpoint gaps in knowledge, technique and exam readiness. From there we build a week-by-week plan that evolves with the student's progress, and parents receive regular written updates.
We work with families across Sydney's Eastern Suburbs and beyond — including students at The Scots College, Cranbrook, SCEGGS, Kambala, Ascham, Kincoppal Rose Bay, Sydney Grammar, The King's School and Riverview.
