The primary school years lay the groundwork for everything that follows. In Basingstoke, 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.
KS1 and KS2 Support
Our primary tutors in Basingstoke follow the national curriculum closely. For KS1 children (Years 1–2), we focus on phonics, early reading, number bonds, and basic arithmetic. For KS2 (Years 3–6), sessions cover the more demanding expectations around reading comprehension, written grammar, fractions, and problem-solving. Everything we do links back to what your child is learning in the classroom.
Year 6 and SATs Preparation
For Year 6 children in Basingstoke, SATs preparation is an important part of the school year. Our tutors help with the specific question types that appear in the arithmetic, reasoning, reading, and grammar papers. We focus on exam technique alongside content, so children know how to approach each paper calmly and efficiently.
Building Good Study Habits Early
Primary-aged children in Basingstoke 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.
If you're noticing your child in Basingstoke 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.
