Core lessons complete — real GCSE exams begin 10 May 2027
4 flexible exam-practice sessions, scheduled during the exam period itself (roughly a day before each paper), dated once the 2027 GCSE timetable is confirmed
Midweek dates are mapped around the standard Hertfordshire school-holiday calendar. Saturday (Year 11 only) dates run through half-terms and Easter, since real GCSE exams begin 10 May 2027 and all 32 core lessons need to be complete beforehand. If your child's school breaks up on different dates, let us know when you enquire — we'll flag anything that affects your group. Choosing not to attend a scheduled lesson — for a holiday or any other reason — is down to the family; missed lessons are not rescheduled. Session notes and resources are made available to every paying student regardless of attendance, so nothing is lost.

Saved for exactly when they're needed most

The final 4 sessions are reserved strictly for high-yield exam technique, past-paper drills, and mark-scheme breakdowns. These dates are kept flexible and will be announced closer to the time, so they can be strategically placed in the exact gaps between your child's 2027 GCSE exams. For Year 11 Saturday groups, all 4 fall after 10 May, during the exam period itself — roughly a day before each paper, once the official timetable is out.

Simple, transparent pricing

£300 a term, three simple payments across the year — no lump sum, no premium.

Refer families, everyone saves

Every new family you refer who enrols for the full year gets 10% off their first term, automatically. Refer the most families by 22 June 2027 and you’ll also be our Top Referrer — winning 50% back on the fees you’ve paid this year, up to £450.

Top Referrer is decided by referral count, not a draw. Whichever family has the most successful referrals (new families who enrol and pay) by 22 June 2027 wins — ties go to whoever reached that count first. The 10% first-term discount applies automatically to each referred family once their enrolment and first payment are confirmed. No limit on how many different families you can refer, but the same referred family can only count towards your total twice. Full terms & conditions apply.

Everything you need to know

What is the GCSE Full-Year Mastery Bootcamp?

A full academic year of structured, small-group GCSE revision for Years 10 and 11 — 36 one-hour sessions in total, running from early September 2026 to late May 2027, in groups of no more than 6 students.

Unlike a short holiday intensive, this programme covers the whole syllabus at a steady weekly pace, then shifts into dedicated exam technique for the final 4 sessions around the 2027 exams.

Why is it holiday-free?

This applies to the Year 10 & 11 midweek groups: every date has been checked against the school calendar — October half-term, February half-term, the Christmas break, and the Easter break are all skipped, so no family loses a session to travel or a half-empty group.

Year 11 Saturday groups are the exception, by design. Because real GCSE exams begin on 10 May 2027, the Saturday exam-focus track runs straight through every half-term and Easter — only the Christmas break is off — so all 32 core lessons are finished before exams start, leaving the final 4 sessions free to be used during the exam period itself.

Can my Year 10 child join the Saturday groups?

Not this year — Saturday sessions are run as a dedicated Year 11 exam-focus track. Year 10 students join the midweek Tuesday/Thursday groups, which cover exactly the same syllabus.

How do I book a place?

Places are limited to 6 students per group, 48 in total across the year. Use the enquiry form above to check availability in your preferred subject and track.

Questions parents ask

£900 total per subject, split into 3 equal payments of £300 — one per term. The first payment is taken on your child's first lesson of Term 1 (Autumn), the second at the start of Term 2 (Spring), and the third at the start of Term 3 (Summer). No lump sum, no premium for spreading the cost.
Choosing not to attend a scheduled lesson is down to the family, and missed lessons are not rescheduled as part of the group programme — though a 1-to-1 catch-up can be arranged separately at the tutor's normal 1-to-1 rate. All session notes and resources are shared on the group's Google Classroom for every paying student, so your child can catch up in their own time.
Yes — Maths and Science groups run on different days, so a student can join both. Each group is priced and booked separately.
Yes, if they're in Year 11 — Saturday groups are Year 11 only, and Midweek groups are open to both Year 10 and 11, so a Year 11 student is eligible for both tracks in the same subject. For example, a Year 11 student could attend Maths on both Tuesday and Saturday, doubling up to 2 hours a week, or do the same for Science. There's no discount for joining both: each group is priced and booked separately, so you'd pay the full amount for each place, exactly as if enrolling in two different subjects.
The calendar is mapped to the standard Hertfordshire school-holiday dates. If your child's school breaks up on different weeks, let us know when you enquire and we'll make sure you know exactly which sessions that affects.
Each of the 8 groups is strictly capped at 6 students — 48 places in total across the year. Once a group is full, we open a waiting list.
