Spring term enrolment is open. Trial sessions run on Saturday mornings while places remain.

Years 3–13 · Maths, English & Sciences
Six learners to a room, one subject specialist, and the same tutor every week. We teach the topics your child is actually covering at school — then prove the progress in writing each half-term.
No contracts · Half a term's notice to leave
Six learners maximum in every session, grouped by working level rather than by school year alone.
Ninety minutes: a short recap, taught input on the current topic, then independent practice with the tutor circulating.
A written note at every half-term covering what was covered, what improved, and what we are working on next.
How a term runs
Nothing here is a surprise. You will know the plan for your child's term before you pay for a single session.
A relaxed written task and a short conversation, so we can place your child by what they can already do rather than by age.
We map the term against your child's school scheme of work and exam board, then share the topic list with you before enrolment.
The same tutor, the same room, the same slot each week. Consistency is what turns an hour and a half into a habit.
A written progress note and, if anything needs changing, a call to agree the adjustment before the next block begins.
Programmes
Choose by the stage your child is at. If you are unsure, the baseline assessment decides it for you.
Years 3–6
Arithmetic fluency, reasoning problems, reading comprehension and extended writing. We rebuild the number facts and sentence structures that everything later depends on, using the same methods your child's school uses so nothing contradicts.
Years 7–9
The quiet years where gaps open without anyone noticing. We track algebra, ratio and geometry alongside analytical writing, and keep a running list of the specific topics your child has not yet secured.
Years 10–11
Taught by specification, not by textbook. Separate foundation and higher groups, weekly exam-technique practice on past paper questions, and required practicals revisited for combined and triple science.
Years 10–11
Set texts read closely, then written about under timed conditions. Every learner leaves with a marked response each fortnight and a clear sense of what the mark scheme is actually rewarding.
Years 12–13
Smaller still, and more demanding. Pure and applied modules run on alternating weeks, with mechanics taught alongside the physics that uses it so the two subjects reinforce each other rather than compete.
The rooms
Each room seats six at a single table, so nobody sits at the back. Whiteboards run the full wall, and every room has a visualiser for working through questions line by line.
Materials
We write our own topic booklets against each exam board specification and print them in-house, so there is no separate book list and nothing to buy before the first session.
Fees
No registration fee, no materials charge and no minimum term. Sibling places are charged at the same rate with a reduction applied to the second enrolment.
90 minutes, maths and English combined, up to six learners.
90 minutes, single subject, up to six learners.
90 minutes per subject, including fortnightly marked work.
Two hours, up to four learners, pure and applied on alternate weeks.
Saturday morning, includes the baseline assessment and a written placement note.
Questions
We hold a waiting list per group and never add a seventh chair to a room. If a slot will not open within a fortnight we will say so at the trial session and suggest the nearest alternative time or level, rather than leaving you waiting on the list indefinitely.
Yes. Tell us before the session and your child can join the equivalent group later in the same week where one runs, or attend the Saturday clinic for that stage. Missed sessions without notice are not refunded, but the booklets and worked answers for that week are always sent home.
We teach AQA, Edexcel and OCR at GCSE and A-Level. Tell us the board at enrolment and your child is placed in the matching group. Where a group mixes boards, the shared content is taught together and the board-specific material is set as targeted practice.
Only lightly, and deliberately so. We set one short consolidation task a week — typically twenty to thirty minutes — chosen to reinforce the session rather than to fill time. School work always takes priority, and tutors will adjust if a deadline week is heavy.
Beyond the half-term written note, tutors are available for a short conversation at the end of any session. If something changes at school — a disappointing mock, a new set placement, a topic that has not landed — tell us and we will adjust the plan the following week.
Half a term. There is no contract and no minimum commitment beyond that; let us know before the current half-term ends and nothing further is billed. Places are released to the waiting list at that point.
Book a trial
Tell us a little about your child and we will suggest a group and a time. There is nothing to pay for the trial, and no obligation afterwards.
