These early skills in phonics, counting, and creative thinking are the bedrock for everything that follows. They pave the way for your child to thrive in Nottingham’s excellent schools, sparking a curiosity that can lead them all the way to brilliant institutions like the University of Nottingham and beyond.

Rachael T
Rachael has been teaching my son, who recently started reception, and her impact has been remarkable. She quickly identified the areas where he needed extra support and has been incredibly intentional in tailoring her lessons. The detailed feedback she provides is invaluable, helping us understand how to support him effectively at home. My son genuinely looks forward to his classes with her, and although I was initially concerned about his ability to focus during an online session, he now asks eagerly every day if he'll be seeing Mrs Rachael again.
