Tutors setting high academic standards
We have set high expectations of learning & development amongst tutors and consultants, who are all professionals within their field of expertise and all qualified at a postgraduate level with many in the pursuit or possession of a doctorate of philosophy within their chosen disciplines. We find pupils are increasingly not in possession of the necessary tools to pursue their academic careers to fruition – and we are here to provide them.
