Year 3

all about year 3

We offer face-to-face tuition at our centre.

Our year 3 course is a programme which runs at our local S4E 11+ Tuition centre in Stechford. This includes a weekly 2-hour tuition session, weekly homework and ongoing support and advice.

Our weekly group sessions provide children with a well-rounded education which supports their learning at school and beyond year 3. The children work on curriculum objectives which are currently relevant to Year 3 pupils, and will include Maths, Reading Comprehension, descriptive writing and some Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling (GPS)  topics. 

We understand that every child is different so our experienced teachers apply tried and tested teaching methods to lend personalised, individual support exactly where it’s needed, so that the children can be engaged and get targeted support when necessary.

How the Year 3 Session Works: Each week, the session will include a curriculum  Maths topic. English and Writing objectives are rotated on a weekly basis. This ensures that each topic and objective gets the necessary coverage over the year.  All children work on the same objectives after discussion and a teacher model of the topic, based on their individual ability level. Many children achieve the objectives given, and so we provide challenge questions which further extend their knowledge of the objective into Year 4.  After each session, parents are provided with feedback about their child’s understanding and progress of the objectives taught in the lesson. Behaviour is also closely monitored and feedback about each child’s concentration and focus is also provided. At our centre, we believe that teacher-led modelling and discussion provide the most effective form of learning. This style of teaching is used in all schools because it has been proven to be the best strategy for children’s learning, especially at such a young age. Therefore, no computer-based work is given. 

Days/Times: From September 2023 – Saturdays 12:30-2:30pm and Sundays 10:00am-12:00pm. Please contact us for availability.

Please be aware that we offer small-group tuition rather than 1-1 tuition at our centre.

Cost: £100 paid online per calendar month from September 2023 (£105 if paid by cash).

Visual Resources:

At S4E we feel it is important that children have access to as many visual aides and resources as possible, especially if they are struggling with certain objectives. For example, if they are working on the objective  of elapsed time  in year 3 or 4, children will  be given  working clocks  to increase their understanding of telling the difference in time.
