Your Child's Progress
We promise to put 110% effort into your child, but we can only do so much.
There are many factors that contribute to their grades including…
- The number of live group lessons they attend,
- If they complete their subject courses
- The amount of time that they spend doing independent preparation between lessons
Other factors are difficult to quantify such as…
- Strengths and weaknesses in particular subjects, as they can be hidden easily unless all children are honest about them.
In addition to outside factors like…
- Exam anxiety
- Lack of attention/focus
- Confidence issues
All of which can play a massive part in their final grades and outcomes.
While we can guarantee that your child will progress with us as an individual, we can’t guarantee specific grades or qualifications.
Your Child's Educational Journey is Special
Since you're in a contract with us, we don't allow you to make private arrangements with our tutors outside our platform.
If you do breach these terms, your subscription will be terminated and may result in legal action.
We'll Protect Your Data, We Promise
Your personal data is… Well personal, we understand that you'd want to keep it that way.
That's why we adhere to data protection regulations and secure your data at all times.
At any time you have the right to ask for a copy of your personal data that we have stored.
If this is something that takes your interest, you can read more in our Privacy Policy.
Say Cheeeeeeese!
All our live lessons are recored mainly for monitoring and training purposes, however they also have another reason that'll benefit your child.
If your child does happen to miss a live lesson, they'll be able to access it through our Resource Library so they can catch up and be ready for next week.
If you don't want your child to be recorded, you must let us know in advance in writing so we can use an alternative solution for other children who may have missed that lesson.
Your child's work is amazing or a role model and sometimes we'd like to use them to inspire others. If we would like to use your child's image it's assumed we have your permission unless you've told us in advance that you don't want that.
