°®ÒºÊÓÆµ has built up a comprehensive knowledge of the UK private education system, and advises parents on their educational options. We use a variety of sources to gather reliable, objective information about schools, education systems, curricula, teachers and the whole scope of the contemporary educational experience.
We offer a free 15 minute consultation to any client in the first instance so we can explain our services and answer any questions you may have.
Standalone consultations
Often families will have a specific topic they would like to discuss in depth, and we have significant experience in supporting families with the following examples:
- Overview of the UK education system.
- GCSE/A Level/IB subject choices.
- Would IB or A Levels be more suitable for my child?
- Which school/university offer should I accept?
- Personalised timeline for school/university entrance.
- Explanation of entrance test requirements and preparation.
Ad hoc advice
We can advise families in many ways as and when required, including but not limited to:
- General Educational Recommendations: Recommend educational professionals, such as educational psychologists, therapists and other advisors.
- Enrichment Recommendations: Recommend non-school educational opportunities: book recommendations, holiday and course opportunities, homeschooling.
- Educational Troubleshooting: Be a common-sense and proactive sounding board for solutions to any educational headache.
Education Health Check
°®ÒºÊÓÆµâ€™s ‘Education Health Check’ offers an annual ‘MOT’ to ensure that families are getting the best possible educational experience. °®ÒºÊÓÆµâ€™s Education Health Check seeks to provide a common-sense and proactive sounding board for miscellaneous educational troubleshooting outside of the more targeted Schools and University selection processes.
What is included in the Education Health Check?
- Quarterly meetings with a dedicated Education Consultant. These meetings would always have a pre-planned agenda to maximise efficiency
- A review of your children’s school and tutor reports
- A short report outlining school options – this would look at the different scenarios (i.e. London schools vs schools outside of London; commute times etc.)
- Advice on planning and discussion with respect to the longer-term educational strategy
- Collaboration with our SEN advisors
- A general sounding board for any educational troubleshooting
- Access and referrals to °®ÒºÊÓÆµâ€™s unparalleled network of trusted advisors, from Oxbridge experts to the best SEN advisors
- Reading recommendations and summer school, holiday and wider enrichment recommendations
- Advice on sourcing relevant work experience and suitable careers advisors
How it works?
The Education Health Check is billed in quarterly instalments in advance of each quarter. The client or °®ÒºÊÓÆµ Tutors may terminate the annual advisory service at the end of each quarter. The fee is solely for °®ÒºÊÓÆµâ€™s advisory work conducted by members of the °®ÒºÊÓÆµ team. Any additional expenses will be billed on top. These may include (but are not limited to) tutoring fees, school registration fees and travel to the client’s location. °®ÒºÊÓÆµ will inform the client in advance of any additional fees for services beyond the advisory service.
