Results
At the heart of Oak Hill is its research-based programme, first developed by the Hill Learning Center over 40 years ago. Documented results collected from Switzerland and the US strongly indicate that when students learn using the Hill methodology, their skills improve at a greater rate than would otherwise have been expected. Students thrive on the predictable, individualised, and explicit nature of the programme, while working to remediate gaps in their learning.
Student progress in standardised assessment
Our research-based and explicit programme ensures that students make positive gains in their learning. Using Woodcock Johnson standardised assessments, we track student progress and plan individual programmes of work to help students achieve their goals.
