An individual learning plan for every child.
The plan is built around your child’s strengths, gaps and next goals, alongside grade-level expectations. In a group of no more than four, each child receives direct teacher instruction and review and application work prepared for their learning priorities.
What your child learns
Skills to understand, practise and use.
Sentence structure & synthesis
Build, combine and restructure sentences while preserving meaning. Understand how changes to sentence structure affect the relationship between ideas.
Reading skills
Read varied texts fluently, understand vocabulary in context and follow how ideas develop across sentences and paragraphs.
Comprehension skills
Identify key details, sequence events, explain cause and effect, make inferences and evaluate ideas. Learn to support answers with relevant evidence from the text.
Composition writing
Develop planning, structure and “show, not tell” techniques. Work on turning ideas into a coherent piece of writing, choosing details purposefully and reviewing what has been written.
Vocabulary, spelling & editing
Choose words precisely, recognise spelling patterns and check written accuracy. Connect language knowledge to the choices children make in their own reading and writing.
Inside the lesson
Teach the reasoning. Practise for independent use.
01
Understand the concept
The teacher explains and models the concept, connecting it to what the child knows and identifying where the reasoning breaks down.
02
Work with varied examples
Purposeful practice revisits the concept in different sentences, questions and writing tasks. The aim is understanding that transfers beyond a familiar exercise.
03
Review and adjust the plan
Teachers check recall and independent application, then choose what to consolidate or introduce next. School expectations give direction without overlooking gaps in earlier learning.
Questions about Primary English
How can different school years learn in one group?
The group has no more than four students. Each child follows an individual learning plan and receives direct teacher instruction. Independent review and application work are prepared around the concepts that child is currently mastering; children do not all need to work on the same page.
Is the programme relevant to school English?
Yes. Grammar, sentence structure, vocabulary, comprehension and composition develop the language skills children need for school questions and written tasks. Plans take grade-level expectations into account while addressing the understanding needed to apply those skills.
Is the programme only for local-school students?
We welcome children with different starting points and school experiences. Tell us your child’s current school, year and learning needs so we can consider their school expectations alongside their current skills.
How will I know what my child is working on?
Feedback after every class notes the learning covered, teacher observations and next steps. You may also book a complimentary time with the teacher to discuss your child’s progress in more depth.
