Go beyond Secondary School Limits with Key Stage 3 tutors

According to the National Curriculum, KS3 consists of grades 7th to 9th for children aged from 11 to 14 years old. Students take their first serious steps towards the General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) at Key Stage 3. Therefore, they need to understand the covered subjects to prepare for the GCSE exam held by the end of KS4. However, some students cannot keep up with the school pace due to a problem or unique learning styles, and they need further assistance to complete KS3. That's where our tutors can help the students learn all school subjects completely and effectively.

The importance of Key Stage 3 in a child's education

KS3 is the bridge between primary education and the more focused and detailed subjects covered in KS4. The students develop necessary skills in literacy and numeracy, which are required for further education and their personal lives. KS3 covers a wide array of subjects, allowing students to find their passion and decide which subject they want to pursue in higher education. KS3 also familiarises the students with the world around them through subjects like History and Geography. Another significance of KS3 is that it coincides with early adolescence, and the students learn how to cope with the major changes in their lives. Overall, KS3 lays the foundation for children's education, and how the children perceive their educational and professional future depends on how they take their first steps at KS3. Parents and their children must take the significance of KS3 into consideration to be well-prepared for KS4 and the GCSE exams.

What subjects are covered at KS3?

KS3 covers a wide range of subjects to help students gain general knowledge about the world around them and fit in their society by learning the values. The following are the subjects that have to be taught at KS3 according to the national curriculum.

  1. English: the subject aims to prepare students to use English effectively for personal and educational growth. The students develop reading, writing, and speaking skills and broaden their vocabulary and grammar knowledge.
  2. Mathematics: maths consists of various mathematical subjects, including numbers, algebra, geometry, and statistics. 
  3. Science: it consists of biology, chemistry, and physics. Students learn about living organisms and life processes (Biology), different substances and chemical reactions (Chemistry), and laws of motion, forces, waves, and electricity (Physics). 
  4. History: it gives the students a rudimentary knowledge of major historical global events and answers some questions about the past. 
  5. Geography: it teaches about the natural and human landscapes and the environment.
  6. Art and Design: the subject is implemented in the curriculum to help the students be more creative through visual, tactile, and sensory experiences. 
  7. Design and Technology: It covers lessons designed to teach the students how to work with different tools to create things. It focuses on the practical aspect of KS3 education.
  8. Music: students learn basic musical concepts and learn to perform or review music.
  9. Physical Education (PE): it focuses on health and fitness by requiring the students to take part in different sports.
  10. Modern Foreign Languages: it involves modern foreign language courses like German or French and understanding the culture of the speakers of that language.
  11. Computing: it teaches basic knowledge about computers, aiming to develop digital literacy. 
  12. Citizenship: the subject helps the students understand their role as members of a democratic society and how they can contribute to its betterment. 
  13. Religious Education (RE): it teaches about different religions and worldviews and promotes tolerance towards different ideologies.

How to master the KS3 subjects?

The first thing students need to do to understand the subjects covered in KS3 is to listen attentively. They need to focus on what the teacher says and follow their steps to understand the basics of the subject. The next thing is practising what is learnt. Since this is most probably the student's first exposure to these topics, they need to keep practising and revising them. They can also benefit from supplementary materials available online and watch educational video clips on YouTube.

However, sometimes the lessons taught at school are not explained well or, for one reason or another, your child does not understand the concepts well. This can be due to distractions, peer effect, insufficient practice, the teacher's teaching style or your child's special learning style. Under these circumstances, hiring a private KS3 teacher is the best alternative. Private KS3 teachers can guide your child in any of the abovementioned subjects and improve their overall performance.

How can a KS3 tutor help my kid? 

  1. Children have unique cognitive styles, meaning they learn through different channels. Due to the number of students in public classrooms and time restrictions, schools cannot offer personalised online lessons for each student. This can be problematic, especially for students with unique learning styles or conditions. On the contrary, online computer tutors tailor the lessons based on how your child learns the best and customise the lessons to make them more engaging for the student. The subjects are taught based on the student's own pace.
  2. Computer science tutors not only explain the concepts taught at school, but also offer additional clarifications for struggling students when needed. In other words, computer tutors can provide extra support to their learners. For fast learners and advanced students, tutors can teach extra points and coverrelevant extracurricular resources as well.
  3. With KS3 private tutoring, your child receives the tutor's undivided attention. This gives the tutor a chance to monitor your child's performance carefully and provide them with relevant, immediate, and constructive feedback to facilitate and accelerate their progress.
  4. Private tutoring gives students a better understanding of the KS3 subjects than students whose learning is limited to school lessons. Therefore, private tutors can help students boost theirconfidence, realise their full potential, and outperform their classmates.
  5. As parents, it is far easier for you to contact the tutor and find out about your child's progress. Tutors can help you play your role in your child's development.

In-person vs online tutoring | Which is the best?

In-person tutoring allows for a more personal touch and decreases the effect of distracting factors as the students are in a one-on-one session with the tutor. It also helps the tutor observe the student's non-verbal reactions and benefit from hands-on assistance. However, in-person tutoring comes with extra placement and travel fees, and it costs more time and money. On the other hand, online tutoring is accessible anywhere and anytime, given that the students have access to a reliable internet connection. With online tutoring, students can work with expert online tutors worldwide from the comfort of their own homes. Additionally, online tutoring involves working with many digital interactive tools, which can make the sessions as engaging as in-person sessions.

Key Stage 3 tutoring; last remarks

KS3 is the strong foundation of children's education, and it is vital to take the first steps firmly for future success. KS3 covers a broad range of subjects, and some of them, like Maths, Science, and Modern Foreign Languages, are more challenging than others. Poor performance on these relatively complex subjects can jeopardise the student's future education and demotivate them. Therefore, students should invest more time and energy in these subjects. The most cost-effective way to excel in the difficult KS3 subject is to get help from a professional tutor. Ostado's KS3 tutors can accompany the students in secondary schools and equip them with the necessary skills to ace KS3 and KS4 subjects.
