Programmes — Group Classes

Group Classes

Structured courses for individual students, taught live in small groups by our own educators. Each course runs to a set curriculum with a clear endpoint — a debate, a performance, a published piece or an examination. Students are grouped by age and stage, so the room is always at the right level.

How it works

  1. 01

    Choose a course

    Pick the programme that fits your child’s age, stage and ambition. Unsure? Send us a message and we will recommend one.

  2. 02

    Enrol online

    Reserve a place in a few minutes. Places are limited to keep groups small enough for everyone to speak.

  3. 03

    Learn live

    Weekly live sessions with the same educator throughout, plus written feedback between sessions.

  4. 04

    Finish with something real

    Every course ends in a real outcome — performed, argued, published or certified.

Enrolment information

  • Full-term commitment: Fees cover the 10-week development term; per-session figures show the equivalent cost.

  • Minimum enrolment: Each squad requires at least three students to open.

  • Competition pathway: External competition opportunities become available only after completing a full development term.

  • Varsity progression: Top-performing students may receive invitations to the Erudite Varsity Team. Varsity travel and additional intensive training incur extra charges.

Group class questions

  • Speaking time is allocated structurally. Each session has a fixed number of speaking slots and every student holds one. Roles rotate, so nobody can quietly opt out and nobody can dominate.

  • Not without preparation. We build from paired rehearsal, to small groups, to the full room, to an audience. By the time a student performs publicly they have already done it three times privately.

  • [TO CONFIRM — recording provided / catch-up session / make-up policy]

  • Yes. Every student receives written feedback through the course and a written summary of development at the end.

  • A laptop or desktop with a working camera and microphone, and a quiet room. Headphones strongly recommended. A tablet works but is less comfortable for note-taking.
