Your child joins a small group at the right level, taught by practising, enhanced DBS-checked classroom teachers.

Regular progress reports

Written reports and reassessments so you always know how your child is doing and what comes next.

Weekly guided practice

Consistent Saturday sessions and guided practice that build focus, independence and confidence.

Your choice

In centre or online

Same qualified teachers, same Scheme of Works — pick whichever fits your family's week.

In centre

Small-group sessions led by qualified teachers at our Birmingham centres in Small Heath and Perry Barr.

  • Saturday sessions at Small Heath or Perry Barr
  • Hands-on resources, phonics cards and guided practice books
  • Face-to-face feedback with your child's teacher after each session

Online

Live sessions via Zoom with the same qualified teachers, from the comfort of your own home.

  • Live small-group Zoom sessions, never pre-recorded
  • Shared whiteboard and worksheets sent home ahead of each session
