Taster programmes
Experience the impact of evidence-based tutoring with a flexible, five-week programme. Targeted support for Year 5, Year 7, or Year 10 – with a guaranteed price freeze for next year.
Why trial a taster programme?
The Taster Programme is more than just a five-week intervention; it is a strategic bridge. By launching a programme, you can address learning gaps early and ensure your pupils enter their critical exam years with confidence.
- Year 5 and 10 transition: Prepare your pupils today for the rigour of Year 6 and Year 11.
- Year 7 catch-up: Identify and plug foundational gaps for your newest secondary cohort before they move into Year 8.
- Zero-risk pilot: Trial our online platform and specialist curriculum and secure a guaranteed price freeze for your 2026-27 exam year groups..
What’s included?
We’ve maintained the core quality of our award-winning programme, condensed into a high-impact, five-week window.
- Targeted delivery: Five weeks of online tutoring for a cohort of 20 pupils.
- Specialist curriculum: Full access to our expert-designed workbooks and resources.
- Dedicated support: A designated Programme Coordinator to handle the logistics and manage the tutors.
- Collaborative setup: We work directly with your team to group pupils and pitch the content exactly where your pupils need it most.
Pricing
We believe high-quality intervention should be accessible. The Taster Programme is priced at a fraction of a full-year programme.
Contact us for details on pricing for your school.
How it works
While the taster is shorter, we maintain our rigorous standards for impact and safeguarding.
- Eligibility: Same Pupil Premium and “working at” requirements as our standard programmes.
- Logistics: Online delivery only (allowing us to recruit tutors at scale for your school).
- Data-light: To move quickly, we’ll set up a collaborative meeting where your school helps us pitch the content for your pupils. Then, your assigned programme coordinator will lead on the set up, minimising workload for your staff.
