Year 10 Science Tutoring
in Perth: Pre-ATAR

Year 10 Science at Educatta is the bridge year before ATAR Chemistry, Physics and Human Biology. Launching soon. A preview of the stoichiometry, motion, electricity and genetics rigour senior streams will assume from week one.

Taught by ATAR grads

Every Educatta tutor scored 90+ ATAR. They’ve done what your child is doing.

What you’ll cover.

Here’s a preview of what to expect when we launch. Year 10 Science at Educatta will be mapped to the Western Australian Curriculum (delivered through SCSA). Year 10 is where the WA syllabus deliberately introduces the conceptual machinery senior Science students rely on (simple stoichiometric calculations, redox, Newton’s laws of motion, electrical circuits, DNA and Mendelian genetics) and weaves the Science Inquiry Skills strand through every topic.

Our Year 10 program is sequenced as a runway into the Year 11 ATAR streams: ATAR Chemistry, ATAR Physics and Human Biology. Students who finish it will walk into Year 11 already comfortable with mole ratios, force diagrams and inheritance patterns instead of meeting them under exam pressure.

  • 1.Chemistry: introductory stoichiometry, acid-base and redox reactions, the periodic table revisited, ionic and covalent bonding.
  • 2.Physics (motion): Newton’s laws, kinematics, force diagrams and energy transfer in mechanical systems.
  • 3.Physics (electricity): circuits, current, voltage, resistance, Ohm’s law and electrical safety.
  • 4.Biology (genetics): DNA, chromosomes, Mendelian inheritance, Punnett squares and modern genetic technologies.
  • 5.Biology (evolution): natural selection, adaptation, speciation and the evidence for evolutionary change.
  • 6.Science Inquiry Skills: controlled variables, structured discussion sections and uncertainty in measurement.
What you’ll cover

Six Year 10 Science focus areas.

01

Stoichiometry intro

Mole ratios, balanced equations and simple calculations: the entry point to ATAR Chemistry quantitative work.

02

Acid-base & redox

Reaction types, electron transfer, oxidation states and pH: the conceptual glue behind senior Chemistry.

03

Motion & forces

Newton’s three laws, kinematics, force diagrams and energy transfer: the foundation of ATAR Physics Unit 1.

04

Electricity

Series and parallel circuits, current, voltage, resistance and Ohm’s law with practical circuit-building.

05

Genetics

DNA, chromosomes, Mendelian inheritance, Punnett squares and an intro to genetic technologies.

06

Evolution

Natural selection, adaptation, speciation and the lines of evidence: the spine of Year 11 Human Biology.

Why Year 10 matters for ATAR Science.

Year 10 is where the senior Science streams visibly diverge. Stoichiometry and redox are the entry point to ATAR Chemistry; Newton’s laws and electricity are the foundation of ATAR Physics; DNA, genetics and evolution underpin Human Biology. Students who lock these foundations in Year 10 walk into Year 11 ready to build, not catch up. Our Year 10 program is sequenced so the same teaching style, vocabulary and rigour students will see in our 90+ ATAR Science programs starts here.

How Educatta will teach it.

When the program launches, classes will run weekly for 2 hours in groups of no more than 10. Every student will get a printed term workbook mapped to the WA SCSA Year 10 Science syllabus, with weekly homework, in-class problem sets and end-of-topic checkpoints. Practical inquiry skills (controlled variables, valid conclusions, uncertainty in measurement) will be woven into every topic so practical reports stop feeling like a separate subject. Tutors will be 90+ ATAR graduates of Chemistry, Physics or Human Biology.

Next in the curriculum

Continuing into ATAR Sciences next year?

Year 10 Science splits into Chemistry, Physics and Human Biology in Year 11, and your Year 10 base unlocks all three. We run all three ATAR sciences with the same small-group format and tutors.

Where + when

Canning Vale, plus live online.

When we launch, Year 10 Science will run weekly out of our Canning Vale centre, the only Educatta centre that runs Year 9 and Year 10 classes alongside the full ATAR program, plus a fully live online stream for families anywhere in WA. Each class will be a structured 2-hour session, capped at 10 students.

Canning Vale centre

1/2 Batman Rd, Canning Vale WA 6155. Central for Canning Vale, Willetton, Thornlie, Harrisdale and Southern River families. Two classrooms, snacks provided, free wifi.

Live online (WA-wide)

Same tutor, same workbook, same 10-student cap, streamed live. Ideal for families outside the southern suburbs or anywhere in regional WA.

FAQ

Year 10 Science, answered.

What will Year 10 Science cover under the WA Curriculum?
Year 10 Science under the WA SCSA syllabus covers four sub-strands: Biological Sciences (DNA, genetics, natural selection and evolution), Chemical Sciences (introductory stoichiometry, reaction types including acid-base and redox, the periodic table revisited), Physical Sciences (Newton’s laws, motion, energy and electricity) and Earth & Space Sciences (global systems, the carbon cycle and cosmology). When we launch, the Science Inquiry Skills strand will be woven through every topic.
Will Year 10 Science be the bridge to ATAR Chemistry, Physics and Human Biology?
Yes. Year 10 is where the senior Science streams begin to diverge: stoichiometry and redox feed into ATAR Chemistry, motion and electricity feed into ATAR Physics, and DNA, genetics and evolution feed into Human Biology. Students who lock these foundations in Year 10 walk into Year 11 ready to build, not catch up.
How will Educatta Year 10 Science classes be structured?
Classes will run weekly for 2 hours in groups capped at 10. Every student will get a printed term workbook mapped to the WA SCSA Year 10 Science syllabus, with weekly homework, in-class problems, end-of-topic checkpoints and structured practical questions. Tutors will be 90+ ATAR graduates of Chemistry, Physics or Human Biology.
Will you cover stoichiometry, redox, motion and genetics in Year 10?
Yes. Year 10 is where the WA Curriculum introduces simple stoichiometric calculations, acid-base and redox reactions, Newton’s laws of motion, electrical circuits, DNA structure, Mendelian genetics and natural selection. Educatta will cover all of these as a deliberate runway into the Year 11 ATAR units that build on them.
Will classes run in person and online?
Both. When we launch, Year 10 Science classes will run in person at our Bentley and Canning Vale centres in Perth and stream live to anywhere in Western Australia. Same tutor, same workbook, same 10-student cap. Join the waitlist and we’ll let you know the moment trial bookings open.
How do I get notified when bookings open?
Year 10 Science is launching soon. Join the waitlist with your email and we’ll send a single email the moment classes open and trial bookings are available. No spam, no marketing blasts in between.
