Re-enrolment for existing pupils

Please ensure you have topped up your child’s account. If you have a GoLearn portal you will be sent an email with 4, 3, 2, and 1 lessons remaining.

Children who have moved up a stage will be sent an email with information and a link to check availability.

Please check your child’s progress on the GoLearn portal. If this is below 100%, then your child will remain in the same class, day, and time unless you request a change.
