Common Questions
Frequently asked questions
What if my child misses a session?
All live sessions are recorded and available for up to 2 weeks after term ends, so your child can revise and reinforce what they've learned even if they miss a week.
Is this programme suitable if my child isn't sitting a Selective school test?
Yes. Nourishing Newtons is built to strengthen English, Maths, and Thinking Skills foundations for every Year 2 student. The OC and Selective test preparation is a bonus outcome of building those strong foundations early.
How are the live online sessions run?
Classes are delivered live online in small groups via the Scholarly Learning Platform, with worked examples and interactive activities throughout. Questions are sent through the in-class chat box rather than spoken aloud.
What support is available outside class hours?
You can reach your Success Coach 7 days a week via WhatsApp, WeChat, Scholarly Ask (live chat), or a phone call, for any questions about homework, progress, or planning.
What happens after I enrol?
Your child's programme will appear on the Scholarly Learning Platform around a week before term starts (within 12 hours if you enrol after term has begun). Login details are sent by email, so check your spam folder. We also recommend messaging us on WhatsApp or WeChat straight after purchase so we can stay connected with you throughout the term.
Re-enrol your child in our Year 2 Nourishing Newtons programme and experience another transformative educational journey that equips them for success in OC and Selective school tests.
