Our Classes
Our curriculum at Tutor Birmingham supports the UK National Curriculum, which is organised into blocks of years called ‘key stages’. Our Curriculum is designed to ensure that students know, apply and understand the matters, skills and processes specified in the relevant programme of study by the end of each key stage.
5 to 7 years | Year 1 – 2
Key Stage 1 is a part of the National Curriculum that sets out which subjects have to be taught to children between the ages of 5 and 7 in Years 1 and 2. Key Stage 1 is taught in primary schools and core subjects such as English and Maths must be taught to comply with the National Curriculum in England.
7 to 11 years | Year 3 – 6
