At Merit Tutors, we aim to provide your child with a solid foundation in the key concepts required for KS3. Our goal is to build their confidence and equip them with the essential skills needed to transition smoothly into GCSEs and succeed within the secondary school curriculum. Recognising that each KS3 year group has unique learning needs, our tutors take the time to understand your child’s individual requirements, delivering personalised and tailored teaching to support their progress.
Our teachers understand the challenges some students face, and we are committed to providing empathetic and comprehensive support throughout your child’s academic journey. From an early stage, we aim to challenge students to develop strong analytical skills and critical thinking, preparing them effectively for GCSEs and beyond. We listen carefully to each student’s needs and strive to meet their expectations. Our centre designs personalised, diagnostic resources aligned with the national curriculum to target individual learning needs while maintaining curriculum standards.
Each teacher regularly conducts tests designed to simulate school examinations, enabling students, teachers, and parents to monitor progress and identify areas for improvement. Past papers are frequently incorporated into lessons to help students become familiar with test formats and develop the confidence to tackle challenging questions instinctively.
We maintain detailed online records for each student to track specific topics in mathematics where they face difficulties and identify opportunities for further development. Written feedback is provided on assessments, allowing students to practice and reinforce learning at home.
Additionally, regular homework is assigned after each class to ensure sufficient practice and consolidation of course material outside the classroom.
Our expert-led courses provide targeted support in Maths, English, and Science, helping students master core topics, improve exam technique, and build confidence for 11+ success.
“Each lesson we do a refresher of the previous topic we studied so we don’t forget, then start a new topic and then get homework on it. It’s hard but it helps me at school and I can be ahead of all my friends.”
Currently, our class is focusing on linguistic devices. Whenever there's something I don’t fully understand, the teacher takes time to go over it with me one-on-one while the rest of the class continues with their work. This individual support is extremely helpful as it ensures I don’t fall behind
"I used to struggle with science because I didn’t fully understand how to approach learning Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. Now, I’m able to apply what I’ve learned to even the more challenging and unfamiliar questions on exam papers."
Merit We cover all major exam boards - Edexcel, AQA, and OCR - ensuring every topic and skill required is taught with precision.
