We discuss the student’s curriculum, strengths and goals, using recent work where appropriate. The plan balances teaching, practice, feedback and breaks. Formal specialist assessment is a separate service.
| Stage | Learning focus |
|---|---|
| Before travel | Agree priorities, teaching times, schoolwork and materials. |
| First few days | Review understanding and begin focused lessons with breaks. |
| Middle of the stay | Practise key skills and adapt the plan through feedback. |
| Final days | Review progress and agree next steps for the return to school. |
Illustrative programme. Hours, reporting and time for family activities are agreed individually.
A museum visit can inspire writing; a coastline can bring geography to life. Activities should support the student’s interests and curriculum, with practical arrangements agreed in advance.
For longer journeys, map teaching against curriculum milestones, examinations and the return to school. Agree permission and responsibilities for any school liaison or handover.
Agree review points, who provides updates and whether a closing summary is included. Useful reviews consider understanding, completed work, independent study and the next learning priorities.
Reviews consider work completed, understanding, independent-study habits and the next priorities. Before tuition starts, agree who provides updates, how often and whether a written summary is included.
A written summary can be included by agreement. It may cover work completed, strengths and next steps. Confirm the format before the stay; any school handover also needs agreed responsibilities and permission to share information.
