LSJS’ relaunches Bet Limmud Sunday programme for teens

Tuesday 1st July 2025

LSJS (The London School of Jewish Studies) has relaunched its Bet Limmud Sunday morning programme, a challenging and intellectually ambitious initiative for high-achieving students in Years 7–11.

Designed to meet high academic standards, Bet Limmud has a strong focus on textual competency, critical thinking, and conceptual understanding.

The high-level rigorous programme offers a structured, skills-based curriculum in Tanach, Talmud, and Jewish Philosophy. The Tanach curriculum is built to create confident, independent Torah students and develop students’ translation, grammar and textual analysis skills. The Talmud track aims to give pupils an understanding of the centrality of the text to Jewish intellectual life, developing skills such as critical analysis.

Students study in small, ability-based groups to ensure they progress at the correct speed. The result is a learning environment that is deeply enriching and rewarding; ideal for students who are ready to be challenged and stretched in their Jewish learning.

The programme features a superb team of educators who are passionate, knowledgeable and committed to supporting each learner. The staff includes exciting new young teachers as well as Rabbi Michael Pollak, a popular maggid shiur throughout the UK and Philosophy teacher at Hendon School.

“Bet Limmud offers students the rare opportunity to develop sophisticated textual skills and conceptual fluency in an educational environment that mirrors the academic standards they benefit from in their secular schooling,” said Joanne Greenaway, Chief Executive of LSJS.

Applications are now open for September.
