Frequently Asked Questions

At Hart Education, we believe every learner deserves personalised support.

Which subjects do you teach?

We support English, Maths and science across primary, secondary and sixth form year groups, with additional subjects such as languages and Psychology available in some year groups. If you have a specific subject in mind, ask us—we’ll let you know the options.

What year groups do you work with?

We help pupils from Eary Years through to A Level. We can also advise on transition from Key Stage 2 to 3 and GCSE study skills.

How long is a lesson?

Most sessions run for 50 minutes. Some intensive or exam-preparation classes may be slightly longer.

Where do lessons take place?

Lessons are held at our centre and selected sessions are also available online. Your confirmation will include full details of location and access.

Who are our tutors?

Your child will be taught by experienced subject specialists who are/have been examiners and fully DBS checked. We maintain clear safeguarding procedures and there is always a designated first aider on site during centre-based sessions.

How big are the classes?

We keep group sizes small so every learner gets individual attention. We also offer one-to-one support where needed.

Do you assess students before they start?

Yes. We begin with a friendly, no-pressure assessment to understand strengths and gaps. This helps us place your child in the right group and tailor a plan that builds confidence and results.

How will I hear about my child’s progress?

You’ll receive regular, plain-English feedback from tutors. We’ll highlight what’s going well and what we’re working on next. You’re welcome to speak to us at any time if you’d like an update.

Which exam boards do you cover?

We teach the key content and skills common to all major UK exam boards (such as AQA, Edexcel and OCR) and adapt resources to your child’s specification.

Can you support students with SEND or specific learning needs?

Yes. Many of our tutors have experience supporting a wide range of needs. Let us know about any requirements so we can put the right support in place.

What if my child can’t attend a session?

Please let us know as early as possible. Where we can, we’ll offer an alternative slot or provide catch‑up materials.

How do payments work?

Fees are usually paid monthly or half termly in advance. We’ll confirm the exact amount and payment options when you book. Payments can be made by card, cash or bank transfer.

Do you run sessions in school holidays?

Yes. We often run revision classes and short courses in half-term and holiday periods. Spaces are limited, so please book early if you’re interested.

Is there a trial lesson?

We’re happy to arrange an initial session so you can see how we work before committing to a longer plan.

What should my child bring?

A pen, pencil, ruler and any current schoolwork or reports that might help us understand their targets. We provide all lesson resources.
