Where classes continue
Uplift's transition notice says Dymocks Tutoring and Talent 100 finished classes on 27 September 2026. Uplift is a separate provider. Its Parramatta classes begin on 12 October at Level 3, 1-3 Fitzwilliam Street, with plans to retain familiar tutors and a similar timetable. Individual tutors and times are not guaranteed.
Students at its online campus join live campus classes alongside those in the room. Online-only enrolment is cheaper; on-campus enrolment allows either form of attendance. Year 12 Economics is listed online, while the Parramatta transition page lists Economics under Year 11. A Year 12 campus class needs confirmation.
Plume teaches English Advanced, Maths Advanced, Maths Extension 1 and Economics at 30/41 Rawson Street, Epping.
Class size and feedback
Uplift's class arrangements describe average groups of 12 to 15, a 47-week teaching calendar and access to recordings for 13 days. It includes marked homework with written feedback, weekly resources and contact with tutors between lessons.
Plume caps classes at eight. Students can submit unlimited practice work to their own class tutor, who can connect mistakes on the page with what they found difficult in the lesson. In English, that means working on textual analysis and answers that address the question. In Maths, it means choosing a method and showing the working clearly. See our essay feedback and Extension 1 practice exam.
Uplift's lesson FAQ also describes assessment support and tutor feedback. The pages checked do not give a Year 12 supervised exam schedule.
