Autumn Half Term 2020

Group Courses and Workshops

This Autumn Half Term we are focussing on the 11+ tests with small group courses for all of the key topic areas. All conducted using our own resources and taught by our very best tutors, these courses are the best way to boost skills and raise expectations.

All of our group classes contain a maximum of 5 students and we prioritise distancing and safe Covid practice throughout the sessions.

This Half Term, Torchlight is again teaming up with Wurkshop to present 'Write, Illustrate, Publish', our popular creative writing course aimed at primary age students. Over two days, students will write a short story, illustrate it and even make a beautiful binding.
