💡 Why summer tuition? Research shows children can lose up to two months of learning over the summer holidays. Our courses keep skills sharp, close gaps from the school year, and build confidence — so your child walks into September ahead of the rest.
Which situation sounds like your child?
Choose the plan that matches your goal. Every session is tailored to your child’s year group and level — all in small groups of no more than 3.
💪
Year 9 Ready
For Year 8 students
“My son used to be confident but he’s started coasting. I want a tutor to push him and make sure he’s ready for Year 9.”
What we do: 2 sessions/week in Maths and/or English. We identify the gaps, rebuild work ethic, and send them back in September motivated and prepared.
⭐
11 Plus Head Start
For Year 4 students
“My daughter starts Year 5 in September and I want her ahead of the other students when 11 Plus prep begins.”
What we do: Begin teaching core year 5 maths and english topics, non-verbal reasoning, 11 + Maths and English over summer so she arrives in Year 5 already ahead of the curve.
📈
Summer Catch-Up
For Year 1–11, any subject
“It’s been a tough year. My child has fallen behind and I don’t want them to go back to school in the same position.”
What we do: Diagnose exactly where the gaps are and spend the summer closing them — so September feels like a fresh start, not more of the same struggle.
🎓
GCSE Boost
For Year 10 students
“My child is heading into their GCSE year. I want them to use summer to get ahead on the content before it really matters.”
What we do: Cover the most important GCSE topics in Maths, English, or Science — Maths, English or Science — so they start Year 11 with confidence and a head start.
🔑
Stay Sharp
For Year 1–11, all levels
“Things are going well at school — I just don’t want six weeks off to undo all that progress before the new year.”
What we do: 1 session/week to keep skills active, maintain confidence, and prevent the summer slide — without it feeling like extra work.
