The National Curriculum is changing and many schools have already introduced the new English curriculum. From September 2014 all year groups barring Years 2 and 6 will follow the new curriculum (those year groups will come on stream the following year).
Better Tuition’s qualified teachers are experts in English language teaching.
English is undergoing a major overhaul, with a renewed emphasis on vocabulary, spelling, grammar and punctuation. The new English curriculum has very specific guidance on the language items schools must teach.

The new English curriculum is not compulsory for free schools and academies, although many if not most are expected to follow it.
The new English curriculum is undoubtedly more demanding of children in terms of technical knowledge and accuracy.
