BUSINESS NEWS - Choosing the right school for your child is one of the biggest decisions a parent can make. These early educational experiences shape how your child views learning, so it's worth taking the time to find the perfect fit.
When making your selection, focus on three key areas: safety standards, teacher quality and the school's approach to learning. At Curro George, we believe in nurturing young minds through a balance of academic excellence and personal growth.
Join us at our Open Day on Saturday 23 August, from 09:00 to 11:00, to see how we prepare children for a bright future.
Quality independent education extends beyond traditional classroom models.
Today's successful schools recognise that children learn best through multi-sensory engagement and individualised approaches.
At Curro George, this philosophy holds true through hands-on learning: learners conduct science experiments instead of merely reading textbooks and engage with interactive Mathletics programmes.
Educational research highlights the impact of class size on learning outcomes. We maintain small classes, allowing teachers to know each child individually. This personalised attention extends through comprehensive programmes that develop critical thinking and creativity.
Our value-added programmes include educational shows, vision and hearing screening, Mathletics, and the Oxford Reading Buddy programme - all designed to support holistic development without additional cost to families.
The Oxford Reading Buddy programme is a unique digital reading service that provides a personalised reading experience designed to develop their reading skills. This interactive platform takes learners on a literary adventure, developing deeper comprehension skills while encouraging learners to read more.
Recognising diverse interests, extramural activities offer exciting opportunities including Eisteddfod, soccer, robotics club, karate, and dance programmes.
The aftercare programme provides structured homework support in familiar surroundings, helping working parents while keeping children academically engaged through meaningful activities.
Perhaps most importantly, Curro George understands that quality independent education occurs within strong communities. We prioritise building relationships among families, creating support networks that extend beyond classrooms, and investing in continuous teacher development, which ensures educational excellence.
The Open Day offers families an insight through live programme demonstrations, learner musical performances and opportunities to meet our executive head.
