The Programme

Maths or English - every student has a programme that is built just for them.  Not just individualised but individual.  

At workshops, they study MagiKats curriculum sets, in small groups and with help from their assigned tutor.  Each session combines a variety of activities to help understanding. The emphasis is on boosting the mastery of topics as they are covered at school.  Students concentrate on coming to grips with materials at the level that they currently need and they can then move forward into more advanced extension work.

At the same time, their homework helps them to fill any gaps that may exist in their core skills.  This is structured around the MagiKats modules, which combine areas of study in a practical way.  Each week, the student will receive a work pack that contains a variety of topics that 'fit' together both in standard and application. 

Whether it is the curriculum sets that are tackled in the workshops or the materials in the modules that are completed at home, MagiKats makes them think!

Special support is available when SATs, entrance exams or GCSEs are looming and verbal and non-verbal reasoning are available as extras at some Tuition Centres.

How does it work?

• Following the initial placement interview/test, you enrol your child. 

• You book the location, day and time when you want them to attend regularly.   

• We prepare your child’s very own programme - aiming to give them an immediate boost with the work they are currently covering at school. 

• Our curriculum mirrors the UK National Curriculum.  It is completely up to date and is adjusted, when ever necessary, to remain in line with student need.   

• Every student also works on a parallel thread, designed to give additional long term benefit by strengthening any weak areas in core skills or by extending the able student with more demanding assignments.  The core skill syllabus, needless to say, varies little. 

• We work with each individual student on their own special programme every time they attend a workshop.   

• Each piece of work that they complete will be different: they will not normally repeat assignments. 

• An appropriate and wide mix of approaches is incorporated from textbook style exercises through educational games to the use of calculators.  Variety is the spice of life and fosters a love of learning. 

• At the end of each workshop, students receive a weekly work pack of five short assignments.  These are designed to maintain their learning momentum until their next visit.  Answer keys are provided so that parents can give immediate feedback and encouragement at home.
