About this centre
Welcome to the Kumon Grantham Study Centre. We have been running since 2016, and we support pre-school, primary and secondary school aged students.
The Kumon Maths and English Study Programmes aim to bring out the best in every child, regardless of age or ability and help them to reach their potential and foster a love of learning. Through individualised programmes with work set at just the right level, your child will be able to build strong learning foundations, not only developing ability in maths and English but transferable skills that will help them achieve across all subjects.
At Kumon, rather than ‘teaching’ students, we encourage them to become independent learners who feel confident in their abilities and able to face unfamiliar work. Children learn through example questions in our worksheets along with Instructor guidance. This method of learning offers so much more than traditional tuition: it nurtures your child’s independence, developing strong self-learning skills to give them the tools to help them excel in the future. Our programmes establish strong foundations in maths and English, and we support and encourage students to work out answers by themselves, helping them to become self-sufficient, successful learners for the future. 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.
As well as students achieving beyond their school grade, it is the transformation in their overall attitude to work that is equally beneficial. The Kumon programmes help instil a sense of responsibility, independence, crucial time management skills and of course discipline. All these skills aid in the all-round development of their personalities.
Because work is set according to ability, irrespective of age, our programmes allow learners both to fill in any missing gaps in their study foundations, as well as the opportunity to work ahead of their school grade level. Children are assessed to determine at what point in the programme they should begin their Kumon study, then through daily work at home and weekly study centre visits, they will build self-confidence, ability and fluency, as well as crucial study skills such as focus, time management and resilience, in small manageable steps.
We are based centrally in Grantham, opposite Asda, at the Church Hall of St. Mary’s Church, on the Barrowby Road.
