ParkSyde Learning
Open now — your family can start today, and your first week is yours to try: nothing is charged until day 8. Start in the first year of school: every year after it is already written and sequenced, in every learning area, to Year 10, with senior starter units after. The curriculum map is open to everyone either way.
The Prep–12 rates are on the fees page.
The open curriculum map
The curriculum map is open to everyone and you can have it now — every year level, every unit, every lesson title, Prep to Year 12, sent as a document, with how we aligned it to the curriculum and where that alignment has known limits. No sign-up, no call, and no obligation after reading it. Plenty of families use it to plan their own year and take nothing else from us.
- Open to everyone, no sign-up
- The curriculum map: every year level, every unit, every lesson title, Prep to Year 12. Plenty of families use it to plan their own year and take nothing else from us. Ask for it above and we send it as a document.
Joining
Open now. A family can start today: the pricing page works out your family's total before you make an account, and your first week is yours to try: nothing is charged until day 8. Nothing is charged until you have said yes to a number you have already seen.
- Rather talk first
- Leave a name and a number on the home-education page and a person rings you. It costs nothing and commits you to nothing. Ask us to ring you.
- Open now — start today
- Child-safe by design
- Families & educators
What it costs
The Prep–12 program rates are on the fees page. Additional learners are discounted — ask for the current rates in writing.
- Funding
- Funding arrangements belong to Services Australia, not to us.
Who it’s open to
A calm, structured way to plan learning across the areas, keep progress simply, and print a record you can show your registrar. Built child-safe — a guardian records consent before anything begins, and you can remove your child and every record at any time. Still growing.
Families, and educators who would like to run it too. It is sized for children and the adult teaching them, not a lecture theatre. You do not need to have been doing this a while, or to have a plan for the year, before it is worth a look.
- What you'll get back
- A plain answer, and a pointer to the right page — sometimes just the open curriculum map, which plenty of families use to plan their own year and take nothing else from us. What we cannot give you is a decision about registration: that belongs to your registrar, not to us, and nobody here will guess at it for you.
Free for the children, whatever you decide
ParkSyde makes its own games and they run in the browser on any device. They are free to play: no ads, you never need an account, and nothing in any of them can be bought with money. They are in active development, so expect rough edges. They are free whether or not a family ever subscribes, and the curriculum map is open to everyone either way.
