Mr B - Academic Mentoring

I am an experienced senior leader and former Director of Studies with extensive experience supporting pupils in both independent and selective education settings. I specialise in 11+ preparation, SATs support, and academic mentoring designed to build confidence and strong academic performance. My approach combines high academic expectations with calm, personalised guidance tailored to each child's individual strengths and needs. I work with a limited number of families to provide focused, high-quality support in a structured and encouraging environment.
