Lilydale Heights College offers access to academic extension for all students working beyond their expected level. The College has all students undertake a range of diagnostic assessments early in the school year. This assessment assists staff in determining the explicit learning needs of your child. In this way students can be directly challenged with tasks which meet their academic level or supported in meeting their learning outcomes.

Quicksmart Numeracy and Literacy support may be offered to students who require additional support. These students work to improve their basic numeracy and literacy skills by receiving additional time with a trained instructor.
