We cover the English Programme of Study contained within the National Curriculum for Key Stages 2, 3 and 4. The three main strands of the English Curriculum; Speaking & Listening, Reading and Writing are explored in a dynamic and interesting program involving stimulating methods in which to learn. Lessons are planned to cater for pupil’s individual needs and continuous assessment informs this process. A wide range of resources and exciting strategies are used to motivate and encourage pupils in their learning. Although following the Curriculum standards, not all of the learning experiences will be held within the classroom, which will ensure student motivation, whilst taking part in practical learning skills.

The Callan Method
The Callan Method is a fast and effective system for the study of English. The method is securely established and internationally respected. The Callan Method was invented to enable students to be as involved as possible in the learning process. The Method is a structured programme of instruction, divided into twelve stages. The teacher asks students a series of questions, which the students must answer.
Because the Method aims to get students to speak, classes hold the attention of students and stimulate their memory. The structure of the Method ensures that students increase their knowledge of grammar and vocabulary step by step. Students are never distracted by rare or complicated vocabulary, and must concentrate on picking up the basics of the language. Book Now!!
