OUR TUITION PROGRAMMES
Collectively, our tutors have decades worth of extensive tutoring experience, which will help your child to perform to their very best and outperform their expectations. We pride ourselves on our pupils' outstanding performance on exam-day.
Year 1 to 2 Young Learners
Children of all ages are encouraged to achieve excellence at Achieving Success. Our low teacher-student ratio provides pupils with a level of attention that cannot be matched in a school environment. This provides students from Years 1 and 2 with the time and one to one tuition that they need to develop, both personally and academically. Our "Young Learners" programme supplies your child with the enviable opportunity to unlock their full potential through the guidance of our passionate and dedicated teachers, building the foundations to set them up for life.
11 Plus Preparation (From Year 3 Onwards)
At Achieving Success, we strive to enable pupils across the country to pursue their education, which is why we have established our 11 Plus preparation programme. Our excellent pass rate means that your child is being provided with advantageous educational opportunities, in spite of the ever-changing nature of the schooling system. Our tutors use a variety of techniques to teach a mixture of both core topics and exam strategy, facilitating your child to receive the dedicated tuition they deserve.
11 Plus Intensive Holiday Workshop
If you have concerns about how your child is currently performing academically, then our 11 Plus Intensive Holiday Workshop may be the course they need. We provide an extra tuition experience in the school holidays, led by our subject-specialist teachers. We always note a significant improvement in the students that participate in this course, returning to school with a deeper understanding of the subject.
Year 3 to 6 Level Boosting
When provided with attention, positive engagement and care, every child can make a positive improvement. We offer additional, "Level Boosting" tutoring which enables your child to develop essential skills and a positive attitude towards learning that will set them apart from their peers at primary and secondary level. This program focuses on the necessary education objectives, and ensures that all pupils receive the highest standard of teaching. Children between ages 7 and 11 will benefit enormously from this student-first initiative
Year 7 to 8 Key Stage 3 - English & Maths
We believe that great exam results are accomplished through expert teaching and consistency - and this is a testament to the hard work and support of our tutors. Our Year 7 and 8 English and Maths course/programme gets students prepared for their GCSEs through building the knowledge and attitude needed to succeed. Our subject specialist teachers are extremely knowledgeable and provide our pupils with their time, resources and support in a fashion that many other education providers are not able to supply. This course is crucial to the success of high-achievers who are looking to excel in the future.
Year 6-Sats Master Classes
Pupils who get involved in the Year 6 master classes are unmatched in their ability to understand the topic material in English, enabling them to shine when undertaking their exams. Our creative writing programme was developed by a team of devoted, expert teachers who go the extra mile to ensure your child is fully prepared. Your child will take their exams with confidence in their ability to write creatively, appropriately use advanced grammar techniques, and much more.
Year 6 SATS Preparation
The "SATs Preparation" programme gives your Year 6 student the best opportunity to perform to the best of their ability in their SATs, improving their confidence and giving you peace of mind. Comprehensive teaching of core topics in both English and Maths, and practicing test questions and techniques frequently means that your child will find their SATs achievable and rewarding. We are always up to date with the latest curriculum and objective changes, and are confident in our ability to ensure that material is understood, with proven success.
Year 9 to 11 GCSE - English / Maths / Science
Your child's GCSE results are important, as they are the deciding factor in what road your child decides to take, whether that be A levels, an apprenticeship or to proceed into the world of work. GCSE level success is derived from the quality of teaching, and all of our tutors have an extensive and holistic strategy, supported by years of professional experience and in-depth specialist knowledge.
GCSE Holiday Workshops
Expert teachers offer intensive, supportive teaching in English, Science and Maths to help ensure your child is successful in their GCSEs. Year 10 and 11 students are presented with the opportunity to study exam techniques and key content that may have been misunderstood, forgotten or simply unavailable at school, as we possess the time and resources that ordinary schools don’t have full access to

Here are some frequently asked questions.
Getting Started
What are the days and timings?
Classes across all three centers are taught on Saturdays. We also offer Sunday classes in our Erdington center. Please contact us for specific timings for the classes of your choice.
What exam boards do you cover?
With such a vast array of teaching experience, we teach across all exam boards, for example AQA, Edexcel, OCR and others. We pride ourselves on being able to develop students regardless of the exam they are studying for.
What are class sizes?
Class sizes are no greater than 10 children per class. This enables us to focus on each child as an individual and ensure they receive a level of attention that is far beyond the school setting.
What is the process of joining?
The first stage of the enrolment process is to call us and speak to one of the team. This will allow us to answer any further questions you may have. We will then book your child in for an assessment. Once the assessment has been completed, we will provide feedback and expectations we have for your child in particular.
Finally, you can sign our Admission form and your child can then begin from the next week.
Who is teaching?
All of our teaching staff are fully qualified teachers who have years of experience in their subject material. They are all currently teachers, which means they have the most up-to-date knowledge of the curriculum they are teaching. Unlike other centers, we do not employ undergraduate teachers or even trainee teachers. This provides total piece of mind that your child is being taught by an expert.
Payments
How much does it cost?
Prices begin at £10 per hour and rise to £15 per hour for some courses. Please contact us to discuss prices in detail. There may be discounts available for multiple children from the same family.
What is the payment schedule?
Payments are made one month in the advance and are paid one month at a time. This means you pay for the entire month on the first Saturday of that month.
For example, if the first session is in January, you would pay for the month of January on the first session.
Further Questions
Do you set homework?
Every week, the teacher will set homework which will be relevant to the class material. In general, brighter pupils may be set additional homework to really help them develop.
Are the centers safe?
