KS3 · Ages 11–14
Finding their feet in secondary school
Secondary school brings more subjects, different teachers and a faster pace. Some students need help with a particular topic. Others need support organising their ideas, approaching homework or becoming more independent learners.
We work with students on the subjects and skills they need now, while helping them build the foundations for GCSE and IGCSE study. Lessons are connected to their school curriculum and adapted as their needs change.
