About Contour Education
Who We Are Contour was founded in 2020 by students who saw that the quality of your education was basically a lottery.
Teachers stretched thin by the system, learning materials that varied from school to school, and support that stopped the moment you left the classroom.
We began with 5 students in a room.
Today 15,000+ students have trusted Contour as their academic partners, and we've grown to 500+ team members across 10 campuses in Australia.
In 2025 we ranked #8 on the AFR Fast 100 of fastest-growing companies.
We've produced hundreds of 99+ ATARs, tutored the world-record UCAT scorer, and placed 850+ students into medical and dental schools across Australia.
Contour is made up of three brands: Contour Education → academic performance in high school Contour MedPrep → entry into medical and dental schools Contour TestPrep → entry into selective and scholarship schools Contour is built by students, for students.
You Will Do Connect with interested families: Contact students and parents who have enquired about Contour, registered their interest or are eligible for follow-up after a free trial.
you're often the first person a family speaks to, and how you show up genuinely shapes a student's start with Contour.
