Secondary Science Learning Centre
The SSLC was founded in 2017 and is made up of outstanding science teachers who each have 15 years of experience working in a range of London schools. Our backgrounds come from roles as Directors of Science, a Lead Practitioner for the London School of Excellence and a STEM National Lead teacher. Our pupil's results are a reflection of an exceptional track record in increasing their achievement in GCSE and A level Science. Collectively we have the skill set required to enable pupils to exceed their target grades. Our goal is to help and mentor students of all abilities to fulfil their potential.
Achieving Grades
We can help you get the required grades to get into your chosen sixth form college or University
Track Record
We have a proven track record of helping pupils achieve up to two grades above their target grade at both GCSE and A level
Achieving Grades
We can help you get the required grades to get into your chosen sixth form college or University
If your child wants to study a Science at A level they will need at least a grade 6 (equivalent of a B) for the new style GCSE specifications.
Many Sixth forms will not allow students to study A level Science unless they have a grade 7 (equal to an A). We can help your child achieve these grades and we have a consistent track record of helping pupils get on to A level courses in science.
University courses in Medicine, Bio-medical sciences, dentistry etc require top grades at A level and there is great competition for places especially at the top universities. Again we can help your child to get the grades required to meet the criteria to gain places at top universities. We have a very good track record of helping pupils get onto science courses at Russell group and Oxbridge Universities.
Track Record
We have a proven track record of helping pupils achieve up to two grades above their target grade at both GCSE and A level.
What makes us so successful is our ability to help pupils develop the skills needed to be successful in science GCSE and A level examinations and not just teach the scientific content.
Some of the skills we can help pupils develop are:
Understanding the importance of command words
Application of knowledge in unfamiliar contexts.
Evaluation
Analysing data and describing trends
These are all essential skills required for your child to be able to achieve high grades in the new tougher linear GCSEs.
How We Plan
Individualised, Customised Learning Plans
We will provide your child with personalised learning checklist for all specification points. We will keep records of what your child has covered with us, areas they require support in from lessons in school . We will tailor our teaching to meet their needs
Different Approach
Different Students Require Different Approaches to Learning
With the SSLC your child will be taught by teachers who have over fifteen years experience in London secondary schools. We have taught pupils of all abilities and backgrounds.
We completely understand that every student is unique, we will get to know your child and fulfill their learning needs.
