Who Are These Packages For?
Our Home Education packages are ideal for students who:
- have moved into home education due to wellbeing, anxiety or school difficulties
- want calm and kind support from experienced teachers
- need routine and structure to stay consistent
- benefit from a mix of 1:1 teaching + independent learning tasks

Marked Feedback & Progress Tracking
Feedback is where progress accelerates.
For home educated students, it can be difficult to know:
- whether work is correct
- what level they are currently working at
- how close they are to GCSE readiness
- what needs improving next
We offer optional marking and feedback support including:
- corrections and written feedback
- guidance on how to improve answers
- exam-style feedback (especially for GCSE / IGCSE)
- clear targets for next steps
- ongoing progress monitoring
Parents also benefit from peace of mind and clarity around progress.

Our packages can support:

- reducing anxiety around school

Google Classroom Support (Optional Add-On)
For many home educating families, the most difficult part isn’t teaching — it’s creating structure, planning work, and knowing whether the learning is “enough”.
That’s why we offer the option of using Google Classroom to support home education.
With Google Classroom we can:
- set weekly learning tasks
- organise lessons by topic (Maths / English / Science etc.)
- upload worksheets, resources and revision materials
- provide deadlines to support routine
- allow students to submit work online
- give clear feedback and next steps
This is an excellent way to create consistent learning habits and reduce parent workload.
Work can be:
- set by the tutor
- completed at home independently
- submitted online
- returned with marked feedback
