Tutorials
Academic support
At St Leo’s, we place a very high priority on academics and has a dedicated team of staff and students who are available to provide support to residents in all aspects of their academic program.
The College runs tutorials from Week 4 of each semester through till the Exam Block. In the lead up to Week 4, the College surveys residents to establish those areas of academic need and then sets about providing tutors to those students who have requested assistance.
St Leo’s has a great collegial relationship with its fellow College Road colleges, and shares tutorial resources with the other College Road colleges. St Leo’s attempts to supply a tutor to any First Year resident student who requests assistance; and where it can, tries to provide tutors for Second and Third Year courses.
There is a clear correlation between the academic success of those residents who avail themselves of the support of the St Leo’s tutorial program, and those who don’t. In a mark of the significance the College places on tutorials, both Monday and Tuesday nights are set aside as academic nights, upon which the College will not run any event to clash with tutorials, formal dinners, notwithstanding.
