The primary years are when children learn to read fluently, understand numbers and gain the confidence to learn independently. Our Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 tuition helps pupils build these foundations step by step, so they arrive at secondary school ready for Key Stage 3.
Our classes suit children who need to catch up, want to stay on track, or are ready to be stretched. Each pupil works at the right level in a small group, with a tutor who knows their strengths and gaps.
Pupils build number sense and fluency, then apply it to problem solving. Topics include counting and place value, addition and subtraction, times tables, fractions, decimals, percentages, multiplication and division methods, measurement and shape, and arithmetic and reasoning skills.
We develop reading, writing and language together. This covers phonics and early reading, spelling, handwriting, reading comprehension, grammar, punctuation and spelling (SPaG), and writing for different purposes. Our blog explains why phonics support matters in early primary years.
Lessons build scientific thinking through topics such as plants, animals including humans, materials, forces, light, electricity and states of matter, with practice in asking questions and explaining results.
Key Stage 1 covers Reception to Year 2. Key Stage 2 covers Year 3 to Year 6. Here is what our lessons focus on at each stage.
| Stage | Year groups | Main focus in our lessons |
|---|---|---|
| Key Stage 1 | Reception to Year 2 (ages 5 to 7) | Phonics and early reading, handwriting and spelling, counting, number bonds, place value, simple addition and subtraction, early science vocabulary |
| Lower Key Stage 2 | Year 3 and Year 4 (ages 7 to 9) | Times tables and the Year 4 multiplication tables check, fractions, written methods, reading comprehension, grammar and sentence writing |
| Upper Key Stage 2 | Year 5 and Year 6 (ages 9 to 11) | Fractions, decimals and percentages, reasoning problems, SPaG, extended writing, SATs preparation |
Every pupil follows a clear 7-week cycle, with 48 lessons across the academic year. Each cycle follows the National Curriculum and ends with an assessment, so progress is measured, not guessed.
| Weeks | What happens |
|---|---|
| 1 to 5 | New teaching mapped to National Curriculum objectives |
| 6 | Structured revision of everything covered in the cycle |
| 7 | Assessment to measure progress and plan the next steps |
Regular assessment builds exam confidence early. Because every pupil completes a test at the end of each cycle, children get used to working to time, staying focused and managing nerves well before they reach Year 6. For pupils preparing for KS2 SATs, our tutors use this practice to target the areas that need most work. Read more about SATs and 11+ preparation,
Every child learns at a different pace. Our resources come in three levels, so each pupil works on material that is right for them:
Each child also has a personalised learning plan that sets out their goals and next steps.
Parents always know how their child is doing.
