Tutoring programmes
Our unique and interactive tutoring programmes for each Key Stage and subject follow the current National Curriculum and are designed to help students get to grips with the basics early on in the programme before moving on to more advanced learning during the course of the year. Therefore, to gain maximum benefit from the tutoring sessions, we recommend a child attends the complete academic year during which they will cover all topics on the syllabus.
Our staff can help parents explore the various options and techniques to support their child’s learning needs. Tutors consistently assess children in class and provide feedback to parents as and when required. Students are also required to sit a test after completing each unit or module – this allows the tutor to assess and ensure the student has gained a thorough understanding of the topic. Our pass rate for SATs/GCSE students attending classes is OVER 85% and the majority of parents/students rate our tutoring services 5-STARS.
Student progress reports
Parents are welcome to discuss their child’s progress with their tutor. Please contact your child’s tutor directly and they will be happy to arrange a convenient time for a face-to-face consultation. During the consultation, the tutor will provide an overview of your child’s progress in class and will aim to highlight areas of strength as well as any areas where improvements can be made. The tutor may also advise how parents themselves can further help the child when at home.
