Educator Standards

Only a small proportion of educators meet our bar.

The quality of a child's experience is inseparable from the quality of the educator guiding them. So we built a rigorous process for selecting, vetting and continually developing every educator - and teaching quality and safeguarding are built in from the start, never bolted on.

We assess every application on subject expertise, track record, and the ability to build genuine trust with students - not qualifications alone.

Beyond qualifications alone

Every educator is assessed well beyond qualifications. We look at subject expertise and track record, but also the ability to adapt to different learners, to build trust and rapport, and to share our student-centred approach.

Only a small proportion of applicants meet the standard to join.

Safeguarding

Safeguarding that is non-negotiable

Before working with any family, every educator completes our full safeguarding and compliance framework. Combined with a secure platform, full lesson visibility and clear reporting, this creates a culture where student safety is actively protected, not simply monitored.

Consistency through structured onboarding

Selection is only the beginning. Every educator completes a structured onboarding programme covering our tools, engagement and reporting standards, communication, and family experience principles - so the standard of support stays high whichever educator your child works with.

When something isn't right, we act

Even strong matches don't always become the right partnership. When concerns arise, we review feedback quickly, provide support where it helps, and rematch your child with a better-suited educator where needed. Families are never left to manage it alone.
