About our centre

Welcome to the Southampton, Shirley Study Centre.

The unique Kumon maths and English Study Programmes pursue the potential of each child, developing their ability and nurturing their independence.

At the centre, the children are observed and instructed in their completion of their daily work. Children can verbally practice their times tables and we also encourage all children to read widely. We have a selection of books that they can choose from while they are waiting for their work to be marked or to be collected by their parent.

We operate a time slotting system for parents to regularly bring their children. This enables us to provide a calm and organised environment at the centre where effective learning can occur.

Children attend for up to 30 minutes per subject up to twice a week. Using a positive and friendly approach, we foster an expectation that all children can achieve their potential when encouraged and supported appropriately.

Kumon’s long-term focus provides children with the self-assurance to take their learning into their own hands, increasing their motivation to succeed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Both, and every child in between. This is because of our individualised approach to education, which always asks the question: "What is best for this individual child?" Following a diagnostic test, a study plan is set to develop the ability of the child and to progress them beyond the Kumon International Standard (an international approximation of their school level) regardless of their starting point. Kumon welcomes students with special educational needs, gifted and talented children, and all those who believe they can achieve more and fulfil their potential.

Kumon is a self-learning programme with each student receiving regular support from their Instructor. The carefully developed worksheets teach students how to find the answer for themselves, whilst their Instructor offers guidance when necessary. The key role of each Kumon Instructor is to observe their students working, either in the centre or their online class, making sure that work is set at the right level and that they are developing at the right pace.

Kumon offers much more than tutoring and differs from traditional teaching in the classroom. Rather than preparing children for a particular test or assessment, Kumon empowers students to learn for themselves, through individualised instruction and carefully developed worksheets.

As well as developing key skills in maths and English, each Kumon student will work towards building their independent learning skills and confidence in their own abilities. This means that a Kumon student will not be dependent on – or limited by – the skills and knowledge of others.

As a global programme, Kumon does not follow a school curriculum, but rather is complementary to curricula across the world. The primary aim of the Kumon Method is to develop independent learning skills. These independent learning skills enhance the students’ performance right across the school curriculum. Kumon operates at exactly the right level for each student – regardless of their age – ensuring that work set extends and develops their skills, confidence and ability.
