The primary school years lay the groundwork for everything that follows. In Antrim, our tutors work with children from Reception through to Year 6, supporting reading, writing, and maths at a pace that suits each child. Whether your child needs help catching up, wants to stay on track, or is ready to be stretched, we match them with a tutor who understands where they are and where they need to get to.
The Northern Ireland Curriculum
Primary schools in Antrim follow the Northern Ireland Curriculum, which has its own structure and assessment approach. Our tutors understand the Foundation Stage, Key Stage 1, and Key Stage 2 requirements, and can support children working towards Cross-Curricular Skills targets in communication, using mathematics, and using ICT.
Building Good Study Habits Early
Primary-aged children in Antrim benefit from learning how to organise their work, review their mistakes, and practise independently — skills that pay dividends throughout secondary school and beyond. Our tutors introduce these habits gently, making them a natural part of each session.
Reading and Writing
Strong literacy is the foundation for success in every other subject. Our tutors in Antrim work on reading fluency, comprehension, spelling, grammar, and written composition — tailored to where your child is right now. For reluctant readers, we use high-interest texts to build motivation alongside skill.
If you're noticing your child in Antrim falling behind or losing confidence in reading, writing, or maths, a tutor can help get things back on track before the gap widens. Reach out to us to arrange an initial session.
