Where it begins

It starts with a full diagnostic

Before we teach, we find exactly where marks are being lost — topic by topic, against the specification your child sits. The plan for the year comes from this, not from a generic scheme.

  • Every topic marked secure, losing marks or gap
  • A priority order for the year, shared with you in writing
  • Repeated each term so the plan keeps up with your child

How it moves

Algebra closed by December, geometry by February, then full papers every fortnight to the exam. Every step is reported to you.

The path to the grade

A clear route from where they are to their target grade

A term-by-term plan built from the diagnostic. You see the starting point, the milestones and the target — and progress against them after every lesson.

After every lesson

You don’t guess. You see it move.

A short written report reaches you after every lesson: what was covered, what is now secure, what was set, and what comes next. Nothing relies on your child remembering to tell you.

  • Sent the same evening, every lesson
  • Scores on practice questions so you can see the trend
  • Homework set on Exceed Learn, visible to you

Before you begin

Everything You Need to Know

We have tried tutoring before. What changes here? +
We start with what helped and where your child still feels stuck. The diagnostic gives a real starting point, and the plan is built from it — not from a generic scheme.
How do you make sure the tutor is a good fit? +
We match on subject and how your child learns. If it isn’t working, tell us and we’ll re-match at no extra charge.
What does it cost, and how does billing work? +
From £129 per month, billed monthly, with scope and price confirmed before enrolment. Monthly plans end with one month’s written notice. See our full terms.
Can support be tailored for SEND? +
Tell us about your child’s needs on the call. Where we can support safely, we’ll look for a tutor with relevant experience.
What if the time I booked no longer suits? +
Your confirmation email has a reschedule link, or reply to any message and we’ll move it. If no listed time works, choose “we’ll call to arrange”.
Will my child reach a particular grade? +
We don’t promise a grade — outcomes depend on the starting point, time and engagement. What we commit to is the process: assess, prioritise, teach, practise, review.
