Why we obsess over marks
A lesson works when someone notices where the thinking went wrong. We built Upward Grade Tutors around that moment: a tutor, a pupil, a past paper, an hour that changes what happens in the exam hall. Nothing here replaces the teacher in the room.
- No.
The exam board comes first
Every lesson plan starts from the specification your child actually sits. If AQA drops a topic or Edexcel moves a paper, the planning moves with it.
- No.
One tutor, one pupil
Lessons run one to one, online or at your kitchen table. There is no shared whiteboard with eight faces on it and no queue for attention.
- No.
Progress you can read
Parents get a written progress report that says what was covered and what comes next. Plain language, no jargon about attainment bands.
- No.
Checked before they arrive
Tutors hold an enhanced DBS check and a recognised teaching qualification. Ask to see the paperwork before the first lesson.
In plain words
Details about your child stay in your account and are used only to plan and report on lessons. Our privacy policy sets out what we hold, how long we keep it and how to ask for a copy.
