Braintree Coaching Australia maintains a directory of the 87 NSW government primary schools that host an Opportunity Class (OC) — a two-year program for high-potential Year 5 and Year 6 students. Every school links to a profile with its suburb, publicly-cited Year 5 places where available, and how the NSW Opportunity Class Placement Test decides entry.

87 schools, alphabetical. Each links to a profile with the school’s suburb, published Year 5 Opportunity Class places where available, and how placement works.

How to get into a NSW Opportunity Class

Entry to every Opportunity Class is decided by the NSW Opportunity Class Placement Test, sat in Year 4 for Year 5 entry. Families apply through the NSW Department of Education and nominate Opportunity Class schools in order of preference; placement is based on the test score and those preferences. Our NSW Opportunity Class preparation hub covers the full timeline, test sections and a preparation runway.
