Young Learners
A step into the world of reading, writing and spelling
How Are We Different
Our programme blends educational psychology, speech and language therapy, and systematic phonics to help children read, write and spell with confidence. This approach strengthens listening, articulation and spelling accuracy — skills that build clear and fluent communication.
Children learn in a supportive and engaging environment, where they are encouraged to explore sounds and words at their own pace. Each session is designed to be effective, enjoyable and motivating.
We also partner with parents. Through professional guidance and home resources, families can continue supporting learning beyond the classroom, making progress smooth and consistent.
In this programme, children are introduced to spoken and written English through our specially designed early literacy programme. The programme is broken up into stages with clear learning objectives to ensure that children are able to learn at their own pace. Using a multisensory approach — where children see, hear, move, and touch as they learn — we help them develop strong phonemic awareness, clear articulation, and growing reading confidence.
Through listening, stories, and play-based activities, children strengthen their hand and finger control for early writing, explore English sounds in meaningful ways, and begin reading in a fun, pressure-free environment.
Level 1: Read, Write and Spell for English Learners
What Your Child Will Learn
By the end of this level, your child will
be able to:
- Recognise and read high-frequency words with growing confidence
- Develop letter-sound recognition
- Speak and present about simple, familiar topics (like family and daily living activities)
- Write and spell high-frequency words and words with up to 3 sounds (consonant and vowels)

How We Teach
Learning happens through multisensory play — children see, hear, move, and touch as they learn.
Activities include:
- Singing and rhyming games to explore sounds.
- Storytelling and picture cards to build vocabulary.
- Playdough, tracing, and art projects to develop fine motor skills.
- Group play that encourages communication and confidence.
What To Expect
This programme is designed for children of all ages and language backgrounds, including those learning English as an additional or foreign language. Each child is placed according to their current ability and
developmental stage, ensuring they work towards age-appropriate literacy goals at a comfortable, personalised pace.
Our educators carefully monitor each learner’s progress, providing individualised support to strengthen both skills and confidence. This approach enables every child to experience success and motivation,
laying a strong foundation for lifelong learning.
Level 2: Building Strong Foundations
