We are delighted to share with you the positive feedback contributed by the parents of students who have attended our group lessons and found these enjoyable and beneficial to their learning.

In this week's Senior Tutor Update video, Vivek begins by congratulating everyone on such a productive and successful Term. Vivek reminds us that although the last lessons of the Term have been taught, the office and tutor team are in for an extra week conducting parent report calls and preparing for the start of the Spring Term. Vivek informs parents that they will be receiving two emails this week; one at the start of the week informing everyone that the Term has ended and a second towards the end of the week containing the newsletter and holiday work. Vivek waves farewell to our Year 6 students who will be completing their 11+ journey at the end of this Term but reminds them to keep in touch with regards to interview preparation, making your mind up conversations and the Year 6 reunion event in the Spring Term. Finally, Vivek thanks parents and students for their Christmas gifts, cards and wishes.

In this week's Senior Tutor Update video, Vivek reminds parents and students that this is the last teaching week of the Term at Trefoil (although many schools will still have a further week). Two weeks ago, Vivek urged us all to make the most of the final three weeks of term and he now reflects on how well students have taken this advice on. Vivek wishes students good luck in their revision for end-of-term assessments, the 11+ examinations as well as university interviews. Vivek ends by providing three reminders: parent report call bookings deadline on Saturday of Week 12, the registration deadline for Spring Term lessons has now passed and an email has been sent out regarding feedback for the Summer Lessons.

After a successful first term of the 2022/2023 academic year, our Christmas Break begins today, with no group lessons taking place between the 12th of December and the 1st of January. Lessons will resume on the week commencing Monday, the 2nd of January. Please note that on Monday, 2nd January, lessons will run according to our regular timetable despite it being a Bank Holiday.

We would like to wish you a relaxing break!

The Christmas holidays are an important time for students to take a break, spend time with their families and recharge their batteries – at the same time, this year more than ever, parents and teachers alike worry about academic regression which may make the upcoming entrance exams extra challenging. In order to help students practise little and often during their holidays, our Lead Mathematics Tutor Vivek has prepared some Mathematics problem-solving sets.

At Trefoil Tutors, we value the importance of maintaining an ongoing conversation between parents, tutors and students as a key factor in maintaining tutee progress and development. As the Autumn Term comes to an end, we would therefore like to invite parents to book a meeting to speak to your child’s tutor and discuss their progress throughout the academic year so far. These meetings will build on the personalised feedback the tutors upload to the online portal every week.

To book your meeting, please log in to the Parent Portal, click on Report Meetings and choose a convenient date and time to speak to your child's tutor.
