The benefits of studying Primary Geography
Our Primary Geography homeschooling course aims to inspire your child with a curiosity and fascination about the world and its people that will remain with them for the rest of their lives.
This course covers the requirements of the UK Key Stage 2 English National Curriculum over 4 years and aims for children to:
- Develop knowledge of the location of globally significant places, as well as their defining physical and human characteristics.
- Understand the processes that give rise to the key physical and human geographical features of the world, and how these vary over space and time.
- Become competent in a wide range of geographical skills.
Once completed, our Primary Geography homeschooling course lays the foundations for children to transition smoothly to our Secondary Geography course.

Upper Primary Maths
Mathematics equips children with the ability to reason logically, to solve problems and to think in abstract ways. It is integral to nearly all aspects of life. With this in mind we have developed our Upper Primary Maths homeschooling course to help children develop a positive and enthusiastic attitude towards mathematics that will stay with them.
Upper Primary English
Our Upper Primary English homeschooling course will help your child develop the skills and knowledge that will enable them to communicate effectively and creatively through spoken and written language.
Upper Primary Science
Our Upper Primary Science homeschooling course encourages children to ask scientific questions and begin to appreciate the way in which science will affect the future on a personal, national, and global level. They will learn to ask and answer scientific questions, plan and carry out scientific investigations/ experiments, and learn how to use equipment correctly.
Upper Primary Computing
Building on the principles of information and computation, your child will be equipped to use information technology to create programs, systems and a range of content. Computing ensures that children become digitally literate. They will be able to use, and express themselves and develop their ideas through, information and communication technology.
Thank you for a wonderful year of exciting and challenging studies! This year my daughter has become a more clever and responsible human being. The English course was so colourful and exciting with brilliant texts and clever grammar approach. Natalia has improved her punctuation so much!
