Key Stage 3 Science

As your child begins secondary school, we’ll work on enhancing their abilities and getting them into those higher sets. Out tutors provide expert online tuition in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics.

As GCSEs approach we’ll begin to increase their exam confidence by helping them improve their exam technique.
