Update regarding WISE and Covid 19
WISE wants to welcome students back with confidence and it is very important to us that during these challenging times our students and staff remain safe. From September 2020 we are launching our blended learning programme. This means that classes will be a combination of online and face-to-face. Students will have all the benefits of learning safely and conveniently online yet have the opportunity to meet up at regular times in a socially-distanced and safe way with other students in their class. WISE remains committed to complying with high safety standards to minimise the risks against Covid 19.

My tutee was complimentary about our session and even asked if we could have tutoring over half term. Her mum was delighted as the tutee never normally asks for tutoring over the holidays. It made my day!

Great school!!! All of them are so nice and careful. The lessons are very interesting and you learn alot. Now, in my case, I've got to do the lessons online, but it works great. The online lessons are perfectly prepared and we have a good time.
