Online one-to-one · October and November 2026
Focused revision for your IGCSE retake.
Five private two-hour sessions with an experienced, vetted teacher in Maths, Physics, Chemistry or Biology. The revision focuses on the topics, skills and exam technique that cost marks, not the whole syllabus again. Cambridge’s final retake-entry deadline of 21 September has passed. OxfordAQA late-entry fees now apply. Confirm entry with your school or exam centre before arranging tuition.
€1,000 for the course, one to one. No payment is taken now.

Your school or exam centre must confirm entry, eligibility and individual paper dates. A tuition enquiry does not make an exam entry.
The course
Ten hours, spent on what is costing marks.
A retake is not a second run at the syllabus. Every student starts with an assessment against the paper they have just sat, and the ten hours go on the marks that were lost: the misconceptions underneath them, and the exam technique that turns working into marks.
- Assessed against the paper just sat, so the ten hours go where the marks went.
- Board-specific: Cambridge and OxfordAQA mark differently, and the teaching follows the specification the student is entered for.
- Past-paper technique under timed conditions, with work set between sessions.
- Experienced teachers only, vetted through our Safer Recruitment process before they meet a student.

Five two-hour sessions, ten hours of teaching. One-to-one days and times are arranged between you and your tutor, Saturdays included, and the course starts as soon as they are agreed. Groups are four students at the same level, never more, and start at 4.30pm UK time once four are matched.
Entries are made by your school or an approved exam centre, not by us. Confirm your entry with your exams officer before arranging tuition.
Questions we are asked.
When do IGCSE retakes happen in 2026?
Cambridge IGCSE has an October/November 2026 series. Exact paper dates depend on the syllabus, component and administrative zone, so use your centre’s statement of entry. OxfordAQA’s November 2026 written exam series runs from 19 October to 11 November. Your centre confirms the dates for your subjects.
Has the entry deadline passed?
For Cambridge, the final deadline for retake entries from the June 2026 series was 21 September 2026 and has passed. For OxfordAQA, the standard entry deadline was 18 September 2026; entries from 19 September attract late fees. Ask your centre whether it can still arrange an entry. Both are the awarding bodies' own deadlines; your school may work to an earlier internal one, so confirm it with your exams officer.
Can you enter me for the exam?
No. Entries are made by a school or an approved exam centre, not by a tutor. Cambridge entries for this series have closed, and an OxfordAQA entry made now carries a late entry fee. If you are not entered yet, speak to your school before booking tuition, or to a centre that accepts private candidates if you have left the school that entered you in the summer.
Is there enough time to improve a grade?
The useful amount of revision depends on the student’s starting point, paper dates and available study time. We discuss those before agreeing lessons. Ten hours can target particular gaps; it cannot guarantee a grade or replace preparation across a whole syllabus.
What does it cost?
€1,000 one to one, or €500 per student in a group of four, for five two-hour sessions. One-to-one days and times are arranged between you and your tutor, Saturdays included, subject to availability and completion before the relevant papers. Group timing is 4.30pm UK time once four students are matched at the same level. We confirm dates, availability and payment arrangements before lessons are booked.
