- English: phonics and decoding, reading fluency and understanding; spelling, handwriting, sentence building and basic punctuation.

Children practise putting ideas into words, having a go at new tasks and building confidence with reading and numbers.
Explore KS1 Tuition →KS2 Tuition
As schoolwork becomes more demanding, children benefit from understanding the reasons behind a method. KS2 tuition strengthens core knowledge and helps children apply it to more challenging questions.
Subjects & Skills Covered
- Maths: times tables and written calculations; fractions, decimals and percentages; geometry, measurement, statistics and multi-step word problems.
- English: comprehension, inference and evidence; vocabulary, grammar and punctuation; planning, drafting and editing writing for different purposes.

Children develop the habit of explaining their thinking, choosing useful strategies and checking their own work as they prepare for secondary school.
Explore KS2 Tuition →KS3 Tuition
Secondary school brings new subjects, more complex ideas and greater independence. KS3 tuition helps children revisit gaps, make connections and develop clearer, more confident answers.
Subjects & Skills Covered
- Maths: algebra, equations, sequences and graphs; ratio and proportion; geometry, probability and statistics, with a focus on reasoning.
- English: analyse fiction, non-fiction, poetry and drama; explore language and structure; use quotations and evidence, and develop accurate, purposeful writing.
