About this centre

Online Class available In-Centre Class available Ofsted Registered Childcare vouchers accepted

The Kumon Swaffham Study Centre was established in 2015. The venue is the recently refurbished Assembly Rooms on the Market Square. Our classroom is large and airy which encourages a calm, quiet, yet busy learning environment.   

The Instructor and her team of experienced class assistants, two of which are former teachers, provide an encouraging, supportive and friendly atmosphere.

In addition to developing academic ability, we also support children in developing strong, independent study skills, good work habits, confidence and a can-do attitude; which is vital for long term success. Every child is different, and so their programme of study should be too. Our individualised programmes enable students to progress at their own pace, so they can realise their potential and experience success.

All assistants are DBS checked and have had training in safeguarding. There is a qualified first aider in class at all times.

As an Ofsted registered centre, parents can make considerable savings through various schemes.

About the Instructor

Jacky Steel - Swaffham Centre

My name is Jacky Steel and I am the Instructor at the Swaffham study centre. I took over the centre having already worked here as a class assistant.

I have always been passionate about nurturing children to reach their learning potential and fostering in them a love of learning. I decided to become a Kumon Instructor because I felt that Kumon was something which would help me to achieve this. Before coming to Kumon, I was a teacher in the local area.  I have taught all age ranges, from nursery through primary to secondary level and loved every stage! It seemed a natural progression to focus on a supplementary learning programme which is tailored to the individual, whatever age or ability they may be. I like the way the programme is so progressive and allows students to make tiny steps on their journey forward. Skills are given time to be embedded and the student moves on when they are ready.

The most rewarding element of my role is seeing children’s confidence build and their ability grow. I love watching children discover they can do something new and that they can manage it by themselves.

I really look forward to working with you and your child to help them achieve their full potential.

I have nothing but good things to say about Jacky and her team at Kumon. They have always made Charlotte welcome and never made her feel she cannot do the work set out. They encouraged her development and updated us with her progress and needs when required. We are sad to be leaving Kumon and are only doing so due to Charlotte's personal medical needs at this time. We will miss the team dearly.

Our daughter was first introduced to Kumon when Jacky and Graham and the team came to her school and she was fortunate enough to be selected to be in a Kumon maths group which helped her greatly. When that ended we took the opportunity to enrol her to study Kumon English as she was struggling with her reading and we felt it important to try and help her improve and be at a more equal level to her classmates. It was also a great time to do it as she's met the teachers and team and liked them so was less nervous about going somewhere new. The improvement over these 1st 6 months has been amazing! We've just had the parents evening meeting with her teacher who says that our daughter is now working independently which was a struggle for her before. She also has much more confidence and shows a keenness to read things, which she would avoided trying to do before. Some days it's a bit more of a struggle than others to get her to complete the worksheets but it's a lot easier to get her to do them with her knowing that they'll be marked and acknowledged by the Kumon team. Thank you so much.

Popular Questions

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.

Students can start learning with Kumon from age two upwards. We currently have students as young as two years old studying with us, ranging all the way up to those about to go to university; Kumon helps children of any age and any ability. The sooner children begin, the earlier they can start developing skills to gain the greatest cumulative benefit; as soon as you feel your family is ready to make the commitment to long-term study, Kumon will be ready to help you achieve your goal.

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.
