Primary Education covers tutoring across the National Curriculum in the early years and primary years, rather than a single subject like Maths or English. Parents reach for it when they want one classroom-style tutor for reading, writing, maths and the wider primary offer: homework support, SATs confidence, or catching up after a disrupted year. It helps most when the gap is breadth, not one weak topic. Look for qualified primary teachers (PGCE Primary, QTS) who know the National Curriculum, the Year 6 SATs, the phonics check, and the now-optional Year 2 assessments some schools still run, not secondary specialists working downwards.
Key Stage 2 covers Years 3 to 6 (ages 7-11), ending with the Year 6 SATs in maths, reading, and grammar/punctuation/spelling (SPaG). It's where most primary-to-secondary academic gaps are formed and where tutoring demand peaks at primary level. Year 6 SATs aren't life-or-death but they affect set placement at secondary in many schools, and the reading paper specifically (fast comprehension under time pressure) is where most students lose ground. Tutoring helps most with timed reading practice, with the SPaG technicalities (which are taught explicitly and reward precise terminology), and with the maths reasoning papers. 11+ prep overlaps Year 5 and Year 6.
