Who We Support
Who Primary Years Support Is For
Ages 5–11
Support tailored to the child's age, confidence and current level.
Primary Maths
Number, times tables, problem solving and calculation fluency.
Reading & Writing
Fluency, comprehension, spelling, grammar and creative writing.
Primary Science
Curiosity, observation, vocabulary and early scientific thinking.
French & Spanish
Gentle, age-appropriate introduction to modern foreign languages.
Home Educators
Structured subject teaching with weekly learning routines.
International Families
British Curriculum support across time zones from anywhere.
Gaps & Disruption
Support after school moves, relocation or disrupted learning.
Lower Secondary Prep
Building the confidence and habits needed for the next stage.
Some children need support in one subject only. Others may need a wider Primary pathway across Maths, English, Science and optional languages. A consultation helps identify what is right for your child.
Core Subjects
What Primary Years Students May Study
The exact support depends on the child’s age, current level and family goals.
Primary Mathematics
Builds confidence with numbers, patterns, reasoning and problem solving. Good Maths support helps children understand what they are doing — not only memorise steps.
Primary English
Supports reading, writing, spelling, grammar, vocabulary and communication. English confidence matters across every subject a child will ever study.
Primary Science
Develops curiosity, observation, questioning and early scientific understanding. Children should ask questions, notice patterns and explain what they observe.
Modern Foreign Languages
Primary French & Spanish
At Primary level, languages should be introduced gently — building confidence, vocabulary and curiosity rather than exam pressure.
Primary French
A positive and confidence-building introduction to French. Children hear new sounds, build vocabulary and become more comfortable speaking aloud.
Primary Spanish
A manageable introduction to Spanish through useful words, repeated phrases and simple listening tasks — building confidence step by step.
Why add languages at Primary level?
Early language learning builds listening skills, helps children hear different sounds, develops vocabulary gradually and reduces anxiety before languages become more formal at secondary. It also supports international or multilingual family goals and prepares the pathway to GCSE, IGCSE or A Level language study.
How It Works
How Primary Years
Online Lessons Work
Lessons are structured, clear and encouraging. The structure matches the child’s age, confidence and concentration level.
Short Explanations
Concepts introduced clearly and at a pace right for the child’s age.
Reading & Writing Tasks
Age-appropriate tasks in English, Maths, Science or languages.
Vocabulary & Games
Language learning and Science vocabulary introduced engagingly.
Guided Practice
Students practise with teacher support before working more independently.
Questions & Discussion
Teachers check understanding and encourage children to explain ideas.
Feedback & Encouragement
Positive feedback after every lesson — with parent updates on progress.
Younger children may need parent support with logging in and focus. Older Primary students often become more independent as lessons progress.

Is This Right for Your Child?
Honest Guidance on Suitability
May suit your child if:
✦Your child is aged 5–11
✦Needs support with Maths, English or Science
✦Would benefit from introductory French or Spanish
✦Needs more confidence in core subjects
✦Is home educated or learning internationally
✦Needs British Curriculum online support
✦Is preparing for Lower Secondary
✦Can engage with online lessons with adult support
May not be right if:
—Your child cannot safely engage with online lessons
—Your child needs full-time in-person supervision
—Your child needs specialist provision beyond online academic support
—You need a registered school place
—There is no reliable internet connection
—There is no suitable adult support for a young child
This does not mean the child cannot be supported — it means the route or timing may need to be reviewed first.
