What We Do

Initial Assessment

After the initial contact the student is invited for a free assessment. Once this is completed, we will discuss the outcomes and offer suggestions regarding the best way forward. This will require the student to have an individually tailored study programme devised using the Kip McGrath unique computer programmes and written curriculum resources.

Studying at the Centre

Students work on a variety of materials both written and computer based. During the 80 minute sessions the students work under the guidance and supervision of an assigned member of the teaching staff. The work is formulated to ensure that the student develops a clear knowledge and understanding of the areas of concern. All the programmes are planned so that progression is achievable whilst the student learns at a pace that is suitable for them. Homework is set to consolidate what has been learnt in the lesson.

What our parents say

“The difference that we have seen in Sophie since she started is amazing. She is now much more confident in both her maths and English. She really enjoys going to the centre and has a great relationship with all the staff. Her school work has improved as a result of the sessions at Kip McGrath. It is money very well spent.”


“Andrew’s school teacher commented that the change in his English levels was ‘unbelievable’. He has benefitted so much from attending Kip McGrath. We were worried that he would struggle to pass his exams.  The staff  are brilliant with him and his confidence has really grown. He no longer fears doing exams and is looking forward to getting the grades he wants in the summer. Kip McGrath has certainly made a huge difference to Andrew’s education.”


"We didn’t know what to expect but we have been delighted with Ben’s progress. The staff are fantastic. Nothing is too much trouble for them. They keep us informed of his progress so that we know how he is doing and how much he has improved in his maths. Ben loves going to Kip, he is a much happier and confident lad. Thanks to all at Kip McGrath.”

 

 

“ The best money we have spent in a long while.

If you are thinking that your child might need a bit of help, I can highly recommend Kip McGrath. Mark , Angela and the staff are extremely friendly and very professional.  Our daughter is now a happier and confident girl who is enjoying school again.”
