ABOUT US
“The quality of teaching is excellent… Teachers show great passion and expert subject knowledge in their challenge and support for all students. Students thrive on this enthusiasm and, as a result, are extremely well motivated”
Ofsted Report, May 2018
Our Tutors
Since 1934 we have built our reputation on our tutors and they remain our greatest asset today. Our student-teacher ratio is 1:1 and it is our policy to offer a balance of the brightest and best graduates from the top universities with highly qualified teachers who have many years of experience.
This enables us to make a personal match for each student, taking into account their individual courses of study, their academic goals, and the teaching approach which will bring out the best in them.
Virtually no other school or tutorial college can contend with our list of tutors and we take pride in the fact that we attract and retain the best in their fields. Around a third of our teachers are Oxford and Cambridge graduates or have PhDs, and almost all have furthered their studies to Master’s level as well as having 2:1 or first class undergraduate degrees from a Russell Group university.
