About our centre
Please note that this centre will close on 31st October 2022. New students would be enrolled in the Kumon Bournemouth Winton Study Centre.
For anyone interested in becoming the next instructor of this centre, please feel free to contact us.
The Kumon Maths and English Programmes seek to pursue the potential of each child by developing confident, independent learners through individualised, daily, home study.
Similar to other tuition providers, the Kumon programmes focus on essential academic skills, but we go one step further by developing a child’s independent study skills, needed for university, employment and other aspects of adult life. In addition to completing their Kumon maths and/or English worksheets every day at home, your child will also attend our weekly classes.
At the Poole East Kumon Centre, we offer two face-to-face and one online class each week. The face-to-face classes are held on Mondays and Tuesdays, from 3.45pm to 5.45pm at St George’s Church Hall in Oakdale, and the online class is held on Wednesdays from 4pm to 6pm. Students only come to class once a week, and don’t stay for the entire session, but “drop-in” for approximately 20 minutes if they are studying just one subject or 40 minutes if they are studying both (though this does vary depending on the student’s age) at a time that is convenient for you. Students can start at the study centre from as young as three years old and can stay with us throughout their GCSEs and A-Levels.
Following a free assessment, your child will begin at an individual starting point. Their progress through the Kumon programmes will then be tailored to meet their individual needs. Our classes are friendly, with an enthusiastic team of assistants and an excellent staff/student ratio.

Frequently Asked Questions
Both, and every child in between. This is because of our individualised approach to education, which always asks the question: "What is best for this individual child?" Following a diagnostic test, a study plan is set to develop the ability of the child and to progress them beyond the Kumon International Standard (an international approximation of their school level) regardless of their starting point. Kumon welcomes students with special educational needs, gifted and talented children, and all those who believe they can achieve more and fulfil their potential.
Kumon is a self-learning programme with each student receiving regular support from their Instructor. The carefully developed worksheets teach students how to find the answer for themselves, whilst their Instructor offers guidance when necessary. The key role of each Kumon Instructor is to observe their students working, either in the centre or their online class, making sure that work is set at the right level and that they are developing at the right pace.
Kumon offers much more than tutoring and differs from traditional teaching in the classroom. Rather than preparing children for a particular test or assessment, Kumon empowers students to learn for themselves, through individualised instruction and carefully developed worksheets.
As well as developing key skills in maths and English, each Kumon student will work towards building their independent learning skills and confidence in their own abilities. This means that a Kumon student will not be dependent on – or limited by – the skills and knowledge of others.

As a global programme, Kumon does not follow a school curriculum, but rather is complementary to curricula across the world. The primary aim of the Kumon Method is to develop independent learning skills. These independent learning skills enhance the students’ performance right across the school curriculum. Kumon operates at exactly the right level for each student – regardless of their age – ensuring that work set extends and develops their skills, confidence and ability.
