From the Albright Education Centre
The learning curriculum is based on the National Curriculum. The programme closely collaborates with the child's school to determine what grade level and subject matter the youngster is currently working on. A customised curriculum is then created for the child using this information. Although the majority of the sessions focus on literacy and numeracy, other subjects can also be taught if the school so requests.
