We believe learning is more powerful when it’s shared.
Our small-group classes create a warm, collaborative environment where children can:
Group learning isn’t just effective. It’s energising, motivating, and reflects real life. It helps children feel seen, heard, and inspired by the progress of others.
Because when children learn together, they grow together.
Real Families. Real Results.
Parent of 7 year old, Pinner
My daughter went from hating maths to saying it’s her favourite subject.
We signed up for the summer school because Anya was struggling with her confidence in maths. The small group setting, the patient teachers, and the fun learning activities made such a difference. She now goes back to school with a smile, ready to take on challenges — and we never thought we’d hear her say she loves maths!
Parent of 10 year old, Northwood
The best decision we made to help with 11+ prep.
Ethan was feeling overwhelmed with 11+ prep, and I was worried he’d burn out. Academic Success Summer School helped him approach learning with fresh energy, and the weekly assessments gave us clear feedback. He’s now more focused and confident and got an offer from Haberdashers and Merchant Taylors!
Parent of 6 year old, Stanmore
I wasn’t aiming for exams – I just wanted my son to keep learning over summer. It was perfect!
Noah’s just going into Year 1, and we weren’t looking at entrance exams, but we didn’t want him to lose momentum over summer. The phonics activities were so much fun, and he learned without even realising. It’s not just exam-focused it’s about confidence and a love of learning.
Parent of 10 year old, Barnet
A calm, supportive space that took the pressure off but delivered results.
Ruby did both weeks of the summer school, and I can’t recommend it enough. The focus on 11+ prep helped her get used to exam formats without it feeling like a grind. By the end, she was so much more confident and even wanted to do extra practice! She got offers from NLCS and Haberdashers.
Parent of 8 year old, Finchley
It’s not just about exam papers — my child came out more confident and independent.
Maya can be shy in groups, so I was nervous about sending her. But the small classes and nurturing teachers made all the difference. She came home beaming every day and even made new friends. It’s been a huge boost for her confidence as well as her learning.
