GCSE/IB Diploma Science

In years 10-11, students progress to a more advanced level. Although GCSEs and IB exams are the focus, we keep our teaching fun and engaging, building love and appreciation of Science.

Our tutors have vast experience with all major exam boards including, Edexcel, OCR, AQA, and Cambridge Papers. We cover exam techniques, and revision tips and provide information on useful resources to help our students succeed.

We also help students prepare for their school assessments, assignments and homework, relieving them of their fears and building their confidence.
