About this centre
The study centre, which was established in 2008, currently supports children who attend schools within the local area. Some students also travel to class from a much wider geographical area as the centre offers the opportunity for students to attend a Saturday class.
The unique Kumon Maths and English Programmes pursue the potential of each child by developing confident, independent learners through individualised, advanced study.
Students are invited to attend two classes per week. Whilst many students only attend once per week, they have the option to attend more often during times when extra help is required.
Kumon should not be considered a traditional tuition provider as, rather than ‘teaching’ students, we encourage them to become independent learners who feel confident in their own abilities and able to face unfamiliar work. These skills will support children to easily grasp new topics in school and approach examinations such as SATs, GCSEs and their 11+ exam in the most effective and efficient ways.
An initial assessment will show their current skill set, and together with the parents and student, a plan is made which will allow the student to build on their skills, further their knowledge and excel both in and beyond the classroom.
Alongside the Instructor, a team of dedicated assistants support the students’ development in class. They are all highly qualified and trained in the Kumon programme; three of them have studied the programme themselves, seen the benefits and stayed on to help other students achieve the same success.
Kumon’s long-term focus provides children with the self-assurance to take their learning into their own hands, increasing their motivation to succeed.
