Welcome To
Cairns
MSA Cairns launched in Term 1 of 2024 and has been thriving since opening. The purpose built facility is the first MSA campus in Far North Queensland providing educational alternatives to students who are falling behind academically and need extra support in the classroom. With multiple assistance teachers per class, no student is left behind at an MSA school. We deliver the Australian Curriculum and use The Science of Learning teaching practices to ensure every student is engaged and learning to the best of their ability.
The campus is in the heart of the CBD making it a central location for families in the FNQ region.

Testimonials
I am very happy that we made the switch to Mastery Schools [Australia]. As a parent, I love that my kids come home from school enthusiastic and happy. As a neuroscientist, I appreciate that teachers use evidence-based teaching methods. The individualised learning plans for all of my children have supported them to catch up in subjects they needed help with – and to be extended in subjects they excel at. This has meant that my children feel confident, accomplished, and their academic progress is clear. The teachers keep the class environment nurturing, supportive, and friendly – and my children are blossoming.
