Services
Highly Trained Staff
Our primary aim is to source teachers from the school who will have that extra understanding of how the school works and to make sure students become familiar with the staff who will be present at the start of the school. However, if teachers cannot be sourced from the host school we will provide qualified teaching staff.

Maths & English Lessons
The summer break can often be a long spell without and academic work which results in a slip in academia when students start secondary school. Our aim is to make sure they are well equipped with the numeracy and literacy skills that are needed to begin Key Stage 3. Our study guides have been created by our team of subject experts and our previous camps have seen an increase in student performance in numeracy and literacy.

Student & School Report
At the start of the summer camp children will be required to perform a short online assessment in numeracy and literacy. These are the baseline tests that we conduct to check and differentiate groups based on ability. They will also provide a very short questionnaire that seeks to gather information on how they are feeling. These tests are then done at the end of the summer camp and a report is produced and provided to the school outlining any concerns on students, possible SEN or G&T and a full set of results from the online assessments.
