Summer Intensive Tutoring in London: Help Your Child Start the New School Year with Confidence

Written By Melissa Butcher

Summer is one of the most valuable times to invest in your child's education. Without the pressure of homework and busy school schedules, children have the opportunity to strengthen key skills, build confidence and prepare for a successful start in September.

At Park Town Tutors, our Summer Intensive Tutoring Programme is designed to help children make meaningful progress over the holidays—whether they're preparing for 7+, 11+, starting a new school, or simply looking to stay ahead.

Why Choose Summer Tuition?

The long summer break can lead to children forgetting important skills they've worked hard to develop during the school year. Research has shown that many pupils experience a "summer learning loss", particularly in maths and reading.

A structured summer tutoring programme helps children:

  • Maintain and improve literacy and numeracy skills

  • Build confidence before returning to school

  • Address learning gaps before they become bigger challenges

  • Develop positive study habits

  • Reduce back-to-school anxiety

Even just a few weeks of focused tuition can make a significant difference.

Who Are Our Summer Intensives For?

Children Moving into a New Year Group

Starting a new school can feel overwhelming. We help children feel academically prepared and confident for the transition.

7+ and 11+ Entrance Exam Preparation

Summer is one of the best times to prepare for competitive school entrance exams, including:

  • St Paul's Juniors

  • King's College School Wimbledon

  • Westminster Under School

  • Highgate School

  • Notting Hill & Ealing High School

  • ISEB Pre-Test preparation

Without the pressure of school, children can develop exam technique while enjoying engaging lessons.

Sometimes children simply need time to revisit concepts at their own pace. Summer tuition provides this opportunity without classroom pressures.
