How it Works

Primary Tutor Online offers structured daytime online group tuition designed to support home-educated children (KS1–KS4) as learning develops.

Sessions are teacher-led, curriculum-aligned, and designed to work alongside your wider home education plans.

Online lessons via Zoom

All sessions take place online via Zoom, allowing children to learn from home in a familiar and comfortable environment.
A paid Zoom account is not required — the free version works perfectly well.

Group-based learning

Lessons are taught in online groups, providing:
Clear teacher guidance
Opportunities to listen, engage, and learn alongside others
A structured, supportive learning environment
Children are encouraged to participate but are never put on the spot.

Camera-shy children are welcome

Children are not required to have their camera on during sessions.
Many learners prefer to begin with cameras off, and are encouraged to engage in a way that feels comfortable for them.

Aligned with the national curriculum

Sessions closely follow the national curriculum, ensuring learning is structured, progressive, and appropriate for each child’s age and stage.
This provides reassurance for parents who want confidence that learning is aligned with recognised expectations.

Session length

Sessions are focused and age-appropriate:

KS1 (ages 4–7): 30 minutes
KS2–KS4 (ages 7–16): 45 minutes

Each session follows a clear, predictable structure so children know what to expect.

Booking and payment

Sessions are booked online in advance, with payment handled securely.

Families can:

Pay as you go
Book a small number of sessions
Book a full term block to secure a regular place

This flexibility allows families to fit sessions around their child’s needs, without pressure or long-term contracts.

Flexible attendance

Children can attend:

Regular weekly sessions
Selected subjects or key stages
Alongside other home education activities

Sessions are designed to support home education, not replace it.

A calm and inclusive learning environment

Teaching is delivered in a calm, supportive way, with an emphasis on:

Clear explanations
Confidence-building
Inclusivity
Consistency and routine

This approach particularly supports children who benefit from structure and predictability.

What you don’t need to do

You don’t need to:

Prepare your child in advance
Stay in the room during sessions
Purchase any additional software

Our role is to provide professional teaching support, giving parents reassurance as learning becomes more challenging.

Supporting children to learn, achieve, and succeed — at their own pace.
