Our Programs
Our programs include best-practice in-person workshops and online classes in critical thinking and communication skills for primary and secondary school students from Years 5 to 12. Students learn how to effectively evaluate information to empower their understanding of real-world issues and to aid their learning within the school curriculum.
We have a particular focus on regional and disadvantaged schools in NSW and on encouraging enthusiastic students to reach their full potential. Our programs are offered through a combination of free, subsidised, and fee-for-service options.
Consensus delivers a range of extension programs dedicated to helping students interpret and analyse the world and communicate actively and effectively.
