About this centre
Welcome to the Urmston study centre, located just in the heart of the community and is close to St Monica's Primary School, Acre Hall Primary School and Wellacre Secondary School.
Kumon is suitable for all abilities and ages, and most of our students attend schools within the area and live in the local community. We currently have students aged between three to 15 years old. Younger students benefit from the dedicated early learner area and assistants where one-to-one support is available if needed. Our students have access to a wide range of books (many of which are on the Kumon Recommended Reading List).
There are six members of staff who are passionate about each child’s individual needs and specialise in different roles supporting early learners, or marking and recording class work.
The unique Kumon Maths and English Programmes pursue the potential of each child by developing confident, independent learners through individualised, advanced study. Unlike the process of a traditional tuition provider, Kumon encourages students to take their learning into their own hands.
The Kumon programmes are not specifically designed to match the style of questions or every exact topic covered in the 11+ maths or English tests. As Kumon is an international organisation, our programmes do not directly follow any country's school curriculum. Equipped with these skills for life, our students are able to excel in all other aspects of their school, academic or even extracurricular life, be it in different subjects, like science or history, project work, or the 11+ exams.
Kumon students are used to working in a quiet, focused and timed conditions in their Kumon study class. Traditionally, our students are not at all phased when faced with an 11+ exam as they are used to regular and thorough tests at end of each level with Kumon. As 11+ exams are designed to be increasingly more ‘tutor-proof’, the skills and learning at Kumon become more relevant. Being able to confidently rely on their strong foundations in maths and English means that reasoning and working through examples in an 11+ test comes naturally.
So, we are certainly equipping our students with many of the skills required for success in this, and many other exams.
