Our priority is to keep everyone safe while ensuring minimal disruption your child’s English learning experience. Find out more about our safety measures. 

 

An English course that goes further - so your child can go further, too.

Primary Plus, our English course for kids, will encourage your child aged 7 to 10 years to express themselves in a safe, motivating environment. 

We create a space where only English is spoken. Children feel at the centre of their own learning. They grow in confidence as they develop their fluency in English.

INSPIRING. ENGAGING. MOTIVATING.

Your child will: 

  • build confidence by speaking in English about familiar topics such as their surroundings, from their bedroom to their neighbourhood
  • express themselves through exciting activities and group projects – exploring subjects like the natural world, from under the sea to outer space
  • develop important life skills, which prepare them for their future beyond the classroom.

OUR PROMISE TO YOU
In case we need to close the teaching centre in line with government guidelines, we guarantee that your child’s classes will continue online. Online classes will include the same number of hours as face-to-face classes.
