Testimonials

‘The daily resources programme is absolutely brilliant. I am really very impressed with the quality of these worksheets.’

- Deepti, Surrey

‘The additional resources you are providing are invaluable to a parent still trying to work, home school and look after the children.’

- Sarah, Buckinghamshire

'I have been so impressed with TheSchoolRun and have really enjoyed completing your weekly worksheets with my two older children. Very grateful now to be a subscriber and wanted to say a huge well done to you all as I think it's a great site and resource.'

- Claire, London

'Since we are self isolating we have been homeschooling and today got out their non-verbal reasoning books from school. Within seconds wails of, "I can't do these" and slumps of hopelessness filled the kitchen so we turned to TheSchoolRun. Several of your sheets later and we have a nine year old who now "gets it". We'll keep using your sheets to build his confidence before returning to the official books. THANK YOU – such a relief to be able to help him through and see his mindset change.'

- Claire, Hampshire
