Individual Units for Unexpected Homeschoolers

While schools across the UK are doing a splendid job of providing resources for their students online, you may feel that your child needs a more personal approach.

Perhaps there's a unit they have struggled with in the past and would like the chance of looking at again? Or perhaps there is a subject that interests them on next year's curriculum and they would like a head start!

During lockdown we are offering our KS3 Maths and Science courses as individual units, so that parents who find themselves unexpectedly homeschooling can pick and choose just the bits of our courses that their children need. 

You will find below a list of our units. Each unit will come with an assignment which can be emailed back to the school for marking - your child will then be sent their results along with helpsheets for any area they have found particularly challenging. 

Each unit costs £14.50 for materials and marking, plus postage - contact the school directly via our website or email [email protected] to order the units you want.
