Everything you need to know

Our final aim is to rebuild student’s relationship with education and give them more confidence and motivation.

Our Priorities

Students receive one-to-one training from subject specific teachers in our dedicated centres.

We help spread the joy of learning through games, active learning and other, innovative ways to acquire knowledge.

Providing students with teaching to suit specific needs to let them achieve their full potential.

Our holistic approach aims to empower students academically.

WHat to expect at l2l

To help our students settle in, we adapt the speed of our inductions to how they work best. However we have a layout we stick to in order to give both teachers and students a chance to get to know each other.

Our Induction Process

  • Week 1

    Session 1 - 20 minute visit with student and parent/guardian with a representative from school if available.

    The remaining sessions in Week 1 will be 1-hour sessions. The parents/guardian can attend all or part of the first 1-hour session if necessary

  • Week 2

    All sessions in Week 2 will be 2-hour sessions.

  • Week 3

    From Week 3, all sessions will be 3-hour sessions.

Communication

One of the most important factors in our students’ success is our bespoke, individual and flexible approach. This means that your input, as a parent/carer, is hugely helpful to us. You know your child better than we do and we will always aim to have a positive relationship with you to help us to do what’s best for your child. If you ever have any concerns, updates or suggestions about your child’s education, please do not hesitate to contact one of our centre managers. Equally, we will let you know if we have anything that we feel is important for you to be aware of.

expectations in our centres

We have high expectations of standards of behaviour in our centres. At Launch2Learning, we are proud of our culture of kindness, respect and tolerance. We always aim to look after our staff, students and the people who are important to them, so we ask that our students and parent/carers treat us with the same respect.

 FAQs

  • Yes. Most of our centres are in remote locations where there is little access to shops/cafes. As such, you will need to bring lunch or snacks with you if you think you will need them during your session. All of our centres have tea/coffee-making equipment so we can provide hot drinks. We kindly ask that you do not bring fizzy drinks into the centres.

  • We want you to feel comfortable at Launch2Learning and so you are welcome to wear what you would like. Many of our students attend their sessions wearing jeans or sweatpants. We like to suggest that it is something practical as we often like to go for walks and play games, but that is up to you.

  • Just ask! Our tutors are all very aware of the fact that our students need regular breaks. If you’re getting tired or fed up, tell your tutor and they will give you a chance to have a breather - either outside or in the centre.

  • At Launch2Learning, we know that not every day is a good day. If you are not feeling good (physically or mentally), please just let us know. This means that we can adjust what we’re doing to suit how you’re feeling. If you need more breaks, a quiet space or just someone to talk to, we can make sure that you have what you need.

  • This very much depends on the centre and the day. Most of our centres (except Maud Heath) have a maximum of 5 students in at a time. This means that these centres will have up to 11 people in them at a time (5 students, 5 teachers and a Centre Manager).

    In Maud Heath, however, we can have up to 10 students in at a time. This means that there could be up to 21 people in the centre when you are there, spread across several rooms (10 students, 10 teachers and a Centre Manager).

  • If you are going to miss your session, someone will need to let us know. Contact details for each of the centres is on the ‘Contact Us’ page of this website.
