Four Sessions. One Subject. Real Progress.
A focused four-week block of one-to-one tuition with an experienced specialist teacher, built around one subject and a clear set of topics. Choose one session per week or two per week depending on how quickly your child needs to move.
What This Is
Four weekly sessions with a specialist teacher, each 45 minutes, built around one subject and a focused set of topics. One session per week gives your child time to practise between lessons and let the content settle before building on it the following week.
Book at any point in the year. Families use it in October when a topic starts causing problems, in February before a mock series, and in the summer to get ahead. There is no right time.
How It Works
Your teacher has a short conversation with you to confirm the subject and topics to cover. If you are not sure which areas to target, they will ask a few questions and work it out from there.
Each 45-minute session runs online via Google Meet. Sessions build on each other so progress from week one carries into week two. Your child is set short targeted practice between sessions to keep momentum going.
After the final session, your teacher gives an honest view of where your child is and what they would recommend next — whether that is independent practice, moving to two sessions per week or a full programme.
What You Get
One per week, 45 minutes each. Online via Google Meet with a specialist teacher.
Agreed before the first session. No guesswork about what gets covered.
Short targeted tasks after each session to consolidate what was covered.
An honest assessment of progress and a recommendation for what comes next.

Common Questions
Do I need to know which topics to focus on?
No. Your teacher will ask a few questions before the first session and agree the focus from there. A recent mock paper or school report is useful context if you have one, but it is not required. You can also book a Diagnostic Assessment first if you want a full gap analysis before starting.
Can we reschedule a session if something comes up?
Yes. Sessions can be rescheduled with at least 24 hours notice. The Sprint covers four sessions in total regardless of when they fall.
What if my child wants to continue after four weeks?
Your teacher will give you an honest view at the end of the Sprint. You can move to two sessions per week, join a full monthly programme, or finish there if the goals have been met.
Does it matter which exam board my child is on?
No. We cover AQA, Edexcel, OCR, Eduqas and IGCSE. Confirm the exam board when you book and sessions are tailored accordingly.
What This Is
Eight sessions across four weeks, two per week, each 45 minutes. Same subject, same focused topic plan — but with sessions twice a week the content stays fresher between lessons and progress builds faster. The gap between sessions is short enough that your child does not lose momentum.
This is the right option when there is a mock series, a school assessment or an exam date in the near future and your child needs to cover ground quickly.
How It Works
Your teacher confirms the subject and priority topics with you before starting. Two sessions per week are coordinated so they build on each other rather than covering the same ground twice.
Each 45-minute session runs online via Google Meet. The first session of each week introduces new material. The second session in the same week consolidates it and moves forward. Short practice tasks are set between sessions.
After the final session, your teacher gives an honest view of where your child is and what they would recommend — whether that is independent practice or joining a full monthly programme.
What You Get
Two per week across four weeks, 45 minutes each. Online via Google Meet with a specialist teacher.
The two sessions each week work together — the second picks up directly from the first rather than starting fresh.
Short targeted tasks set after each session to keep momentum going between the two weekly lessons.
An honest assessment of progress and a clear recommendation for what to do next.
Who This Is For

- A mock series, school assessment or exam coming up within four to five weeks
- Your child has a lot of ground to cover in a short time
- Wants to move faster than once a week allows

- Need everything in one holiday week: Holiday Intensive
- Want ongoing monthly support: Full Programmes
- Not sure what your child needs: Diagnostic Assessment

Common Questions
Is two sessions a week too much for my child?
Each session is 45 minutes. Most students manage two per week without difficulty, particularly when one subject is the focus and the sessions are coordinated. If you are not sure, book a free call and we can advise based on your child's situation.
Can we reschedule a session if something comes up?
Yes. Sessions can be rescheduled with at least 24 hours notice. The Sprint covers eight sessions total regardless of when they fall.
What happens at the end of the four weeks?
Your teacher gives you an honest view of where your child is and what they recommend next. You can join a full monthly programme, drop to one session per week, or finish there if the goals have been met.
Does it matter which exam board my child is on?
No. We cover AQA, Edexcel, OCR, Eduqas and IGCSE. Confirm the exam board at booking and sessions are tailored accordingly.
What This Is
Four weekly sessions with a specialist teacher, each 45 minutes, built around one subject and a focused set of topics. The Sprint works because it is contained. One subject, clear goals, four sessions to get there. No drifting between topics. No time spent covering ground your child already knows.
Book at any point in the year. Families use it in October when a topic starts causing problems, in February before a mock series, and in the summer to get ahead for the year ahead. There is no right time.
