GLECTA - KS2, 11Plus (11+), KS3, 13Plus (13+), GCSE & A-Level Learning Excellence

KS3 Year 8 Courses Overview

Our KS3 courses are designed to accommodate students who want to achieve Outstanding results. Our A Level programmes are tailor made to each individual needs. Achievements in English, Mathematics and Sciences ensure that students have the requisite literacy, numeracy and core skills required for their KS3 studies, irrespective of the subjects chosen, and are usually required by universities or employers in later life. Our core focus in GLECTA is to help the students getting deeper understanding in these core subjects.

The lessons take the form of Private Tuition on One-to-one basis or One-to-two or Group-of-five or Group-of-nine. Parents and students are asked to meet one of our Academic Advisers to discuss the individual requirements, expected grades, expected university destinations and subject choices so that we can arrange the lessons.

Students studying in our KS3 Year 8 Courses will cover entire Year 8 content in our power-packed classes, and will also undertake extensive examination preparation via mock tests and weekly/monthly tests. The students will undertake independent study sessions (contents lecture & doubt session for each topic) each week to ensure that they are carrying out sufficient independent learning in accordance with their academic targets and work set.

After completing this course, you should feel confident in advance preparation level of GCSE & A-Level exams.

Our most sought subjects are Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, English, Computing & ICT. For all other subjects, please contact the centre for more information.

Teachers will cover entire Year 8 course & conduct weekly, mid term & final exams of all the enrolled subject/s.

We will be sharing the detailed analysis results of each student to their parents as well so that they can track the development of their kids towards ultimate goal of good grades in GCSE
