Subjects we teach

Our record

What our students actually achieved

Our own figures, from students we have taught in past exam series. Not projections, and not independently audited.

78%

achieved a grade 8 or 9

across 440 Higher-tier GCSE students

  • 156 Grade 9
  • 188 Grade 8
  • 96 Grade 7 or below
Foundation tier
123/123

Every Foundation-tier student we have taught passed: 100% of 123, with no exceptions.

A separate cohort from the 440 Higher-tier students, not a subset of them.

102
Late starts still land

102 hit the target grade they came to us for. Many of these students came to us with only weeks left before their exams. Starting late is not the same as starting too late.

A second measure of the same 440 Higher-tier students above, not an additional group. The two overlap.

The figures above are our own record. For the national picture, we looked at the 2026 regional results and what they do and do not say about any individual student: What GCSE results actually look like across England.

  • “The maths tuition has made a real difference to my daughter’s confidence. Her tutor explains difficult topics clearly and then gives her exam-style questions to practise. She particularly struggled with algebra and quadratics, but these are now much less intimidating for her.”

    Sarah M., Parent of Year 11 student

  • “I was struggling to understand some of the Chemistry topics and didn't know how to approach the longer exam questions. The lessons are really clear and we use lots of past-paper questions, which has helped me understand what the examiners are looking for.”

    Adam K., GCSE Chemistry

  • “The English Literature sessions have helped my son become much more confident with essay writing. His tutor has shown him how to analyse quotations properly instead of just describing what happens in the story. The feedback on his essays has been particularly useful.”

    Mrs Patel, Parent of Year 11 student

  • “Physics was one of my weakest subjects at the start of Year 11. My tutor breaks down the equations and calculations step by step, and we practise questions until I can do them independently. I now feel much more confident going into tests.”

    Daniel R., GCSE Physics

  • “We wanted some extra support for Biology before the exams. The lessons have been well organised and focused on the areas my daughter actually needed to improve. I particularly like that the tutor uses past-paper questions rather than just going through the textbook.”

    Helen W., Parent of GCSE student

  • “I used to get stuck whenever a maths question looked different from the examples we'd done in class. My tutor has helped me understand how to break questions down and decide which method to use. The online whiteboard works really well for maths.”

    Omar H., GCSE Maths

  • “Our son was finding English Language difficult, particularly the longer writing questions. His tutor has worked with him on planning, structure and how to develop his ideas. We've noticed a big improvement in both his written work and his confidence.”

    James T., Parent of Year 10 student

  • “The lessons have helped me keep on top of all three sciences without feeling overwhelmed. We can focus on Biology, Chemistry or Physics depending on what I need that week. Going through past-paper questions has also helped me understand how to get the marks.”

    Maya S., GCSE Combined Science

  • “We initially arranged tuition for Maths but later added Science as well. Having access to tutors who understand the different exam boards has been really helpful. The lessons are tailored to what our daughter is currently studying at school rather than following a generic programme.”

    Aisha R., Parent of Year 11 student

  • “I found English difficult because I knew what I wanted to say but struggled to turn my ideas into good exam answers. My tutor has helped me improve my structure, analyse texts in more detail and manage my time in exams. The lessons are clear and we always focus on the areas I need to improve.”

    Hannah P., GCSE English Language

  • “Clear explanations and a structured plan. My child’s confidence improved within weeks.”

    Joanne, GCSE Maths

  • “Focused sessions with excellent exam technique. We finally saw measurable progress.”

    Adam, GCSE Science
