Educentre - Learning Support is the school's learning support centre. It provides remediation for students who may have difficulties with English or Mathematics. Students may be referred by teachers or parents, or may request help on their own. Lessons are taught in small groups or individually depending on the learners' needs, and some students may benefit from interaction with former St George's students who tutor with knowledge of expected classwork standards and curriculum requirements. The Educentre is open throughout the day, with lessons offered in the mornings during a student's non-curriculum periods and in the afternoons before the start of sports; regular attendance will ensure progress toward meeting their intended potential.
