What are Kip McGrath Education Centres?
Kip McGrath centres are recognised worldwide as centres of excellence, supporting students to achieve in English and Maths. We address reading, writing, spelling and grammar for children aged 6 to 16 and all areas of numeracy, algebra, money, time, measures, again from 6 to 16.

How does it work?
A thorough assessment to start with means children can be placed accurately onto the scheme so their needs can be catered for. Students work on individualised programmes in small groups with experienced and committed teachers to support and stimulate them.

Why is it so successful?
Kip McGrath centres use a variety of methods to support students to keep them interested and involved, using specially designed computer programs, worksheets appropriate to their level and the opportunity to practise skills so the child progresses as and when they are ready, We aim to bring the fun and enthusiasm back into education.

Who needs Kip education?
Children in many different situations benefit from tuition, be it illness or family upset, change of school, children from other countries, children with specific learning difficulties or behavioural problems. We also cater for those children who are ahead of their class who need more, who are looking to take entrance exams or achieve well in SATs and GCSEs.

Is there homework?
Homework is an important part of the process. It is relevant to the student’s level and experience and encourages parents to participate actively in their child’s learning.

Who runs the Kip McGrath Education Centre West Norwood?
Our centre manager, Andrea Redman, is a specialist in developing and supporting children, encouraging success however difficult and desperate the circumstance. She has experience with special educational needs and behavioural problems of all kinds and has taught for over 20 years in local schools. The decision to develop this centre came from a desire and determination to support children who are not succeeding, for whatever reason, within the school system.

“I want my students to feel confident that they can succeed and to enjoy the process of learning. Positive thinking is a powerful force all children can feel. I was reminded by an ex-pupil that I had taught them the sky was the limit, as a University student now he wanted me to know that he and others had succeeded because of my faith in them.”

Assessments are free, to arrange one call Andrea on 0800 5300 375
