Primary School English Tuition: is It Worth It?

 Let’s face it, even if it wasn’t for the intervention of COVID-19, the entire tuition system has been creaking at the seams for some years, and it seems to be under mounting pressure to deliver a high standard of education.  According to the British Educational Supplies Association, there are currently 32,770 schools in the UK, of which 26,360 are registered as Primary schools. This means that the average class size is 27, making it increasingly difficult for teachers to ensure that every child receives the best education that they can – a goal of the UK Government.

In reality, once a child begins to slip behind, it is difficult for a teacher to start any form of educational intervention as they are still having to deal with the regular class.  And in this way, the child starts to slip behind little by little until the problem starts to become a major issue. If this happens with even five students in the class, then the education of the entire cohort could be in jeopardy.

This is every parents’ nightmare, and something that the State education system will find it increasingly difficult to deal with as classes grow in size, as they inevitably will.

This puts those parents in a difficult position as they try to do the best for their children and ensure that they have a fighting chance in a very difficult jobs market. Colleges, universities and employers are now able to take the pick of the school leavers, and will always go for those with the highest educational standards and the best skills to suit their work life. And that can’t be everyone, so it becomes important to ensure that your child not only receives the best education in school, but be able to assess them to determine whether they need any additional support. If they do, you then need to find them an appropriate private tutor to help top-up their State education.

That can be a problem in itself too though. If your child id starting to fail at school, how do you know that just by hiring a private tutor, they are going to get any better at their English Tuition?  Will it just become a waste of money spent on someone who promises results but is not able to deliver the standard required?

But where would you find an Primary School for English Tuition who is able to deliver the level of education that your child needs? The internet is a good place to start, since any tutor with credibility will be part of a team, and will have a website. You could start a search for English Home Tutor Near Me, English Grammar Tuition, or even English Tuition Boldmere and find what kind of results those bring up a list of private tutor companies who are able to help you.

These companies employ only professional tutors, who are trained and capable of not only finding the areas of weakness in your child’s mainstream education, but are able to offer an appropriate scope of work to get them back up to speed.

Using a private tutor is an excellent way of ensuring that your child is not missing out on their formal education and doesn’t fall behind at school.
