Home Schooling
 

Some parents may decide to educate children at home, as a temporary or even full time strategy. Sometimes, children will need time out of school to catch up, in preparation for an entrance exam, for which they have not been adequately prepared at their existing school (which might have been abroad) or because they have missed school for other reasons. Some families may be travelling with their children or living out of range of appropriate schooling.

We supply tutors, who are either highly experienced or have professional teacher training, to devise and deliver full time home school programmes. They often work with two or more siblings. Within the home, they create a school environment, which offers wonderful opportunities for experiential and holistic learning and for children to master the basics in literacy and maths. The tutor will provide a full timetable of classes and extra curricular activity, often involving other children

We find that a period of home schooling (for perhaps six months to a year) can be an excellent way of demonstrating to children that learning is a life long process that can be just as dynamic and fulfilling outside the class room as within the strictures of a school environment. The individually tailored focus of private tuition means that children tend to make faster progress than they do at school.
