Your week

What a day could look like.


Below is a sample day and week. They show the shape of the programme. Your child's real hours, subjects and times are agreed in their written plan.

Sample day, not a real timetable

One teaching day

Three one-to-one lessons, with breaks off the screen, practice time and a check-in at each end. Times are UK time.

These times do not show booked teachers or free slots.

  1. Check-in
    A short chat to set the day's priorities.
  2. Lesson 1
    One-to-one subject lesson, 60 minutes.
  3. Break
    Off the screen. Move around.
  4. Lesson 2
    One-to-one subject lesson, 60 minutes.
  5. Practice
    Set work, with a way to ask for help.
  6. Lunch
    A full hour away from the screen.
  7. Lesson 3
    One-to-one subject lesson, 60 minutes.
  8. Break
    A short rest.
  9. Homework
    Reading, corrections or recall practice.
  10. Check-out
    Ten minutes to hand in work and agree next steps, ending at 15:10.
  11. Wider activity
    Until 16:00: exercise, a hobby or a creative project, agreed with you.
Sample week

Seven courses. Eight GCSEs. One week.

This example shows how subjects rotate. Combined Science counts as two GCSEs, so seven courses give eight qualifications. Not every child takes this mix.

Tue

  1. French
  2. History
  3. English Literature

In this sample week

15 hourslive one-to-one lessons
7½ hoursindependent work

That adds up to 27 hours 55 minutes of planned learning. It is not a legal minimum, a set allowance or right for every child.

Lessons per subject in this sample

  • Maths3
  • Combined Science (double award)4

Separate sciences need a different plan. Practicals or fieldwork can replace normal lessons by agreement.

What stays true

However the week is set up

Every live lesson is one-to-one

No group classes. Your child and one subject teacher.

Homework has a purpose

Each task has a reason, a rough time and feedback, with a chance to fix mistakes.

Breaks are planned

Time off the screen is part of the day, not an extra.

Wider activity is agreed

We help plan exercise, hobbies and time with others. We do not run clubs, so we agree who arranges what.

Questions parents ask

No cost to talk
