English as an Additional Language
For those pupils who need extra help with the English language, we offer English as an additional language with a specialist teacher in our EAL department. Children either have one-to-one or group lessons which cover vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation set in the context of listening, speaking, reading and writing. There is a strong emphasis on reading and exploring the classics of English Literature, appropriate for the EAL students.
Learning Support
The Learning Support Department is an integral part of the school’s academic provision. The department provides a range of additional support services in literacy, the curriculum, reading, and numeracy. It tailors specialist tuition, one-to-one or in small groups, to the individual needs of each child. All 1:1 tuition is charged. All pupils who receive support follow a mainstream academic programme.
Literacy Support - The department offers specialist support for pupils with mild dyslexia and provides a structured course to develop spelling, literacy, comprehension skills and organisation in any area of the curriculum.
Numeracy Support - In collaboration with the Head of Mathematics, a small number of pupils
are selected for Maths Support, which is held weekly. Individual tuition from a specialist teacher may also be advised. A charge is made for individual Mathematics support, which is added to the bill on a termly basis.
