Primary English and Maths Support
We provide tuition for primary school aged pupil in maths and English. Many children still have gaps in their learning from Covid and this can lead to a lack of confidence. We work with individual students to build confidence and skills in those areas of difficulty. We use multisensory teaching methods to make lessons engaging and allow plenty of time for consolidation of understanding. Kelly, Rosie, Gary and Katy are all very experienced primary teachers and can help with: English

We have found that strong Entrance Exam candidates share the following characteristics:
- Children who pass the Entrance Exams are generally on track for greater depth results in Mathematics and English in their Y6 SATS.
- They have a high reading age, usually significantly higher than their chronological age. They should also be keen readers with a wide and varied vocabulary.
- They are self-motivated, hard-working and want to achieve well academically.
- They are in the top ability groupings in their class at Primary School.
- They are working at Greater Depth at school.
- They are willing to practise and readily complete their homework.
