Priority Education’s GCSE tutors are qualified, experienced teachers, according to its site, and the company’s registered office is in Wynyard, in the Teesside area. They teach science, maths and English; families in Yarm, Stockton-on-Tees, Middlesbrough, Billingham and nearby can ask on the free call whether lessons are available in person near them or online.
Who are the GCSE tutors in Teesside at Priority Education?
Priority Education’s site says its tutors are qualified and experienced teachers, led by directors Louise Finn and Steven Finn. Both have taught science for over 15 years, in roles including Head of Science (Louise) and Deputy Headteacher (Steven), and the company’s site says it has tutored “100s of students over the past 15 years”.
Priority Education Ltd is a small, family-run business registered at Companies House (number 14128301). Its site says the directors are “now based in the North East” and have taught in London, Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Teesside. It teaches KS3, GCSE, IGCSE and A-level in science, maths and English, and says all of its tuition is suitable for home-educated students; see the home education hub.
Where are Priority Education based, and which areas do they cover?
Priority Education’s registered office is in Wynyard, according to Companies House, and its site describes students “locally, Nationally and Internationally”. The site does not list the towns it covers locally.
For families in Yarm, Stockton-on-Tees, Middlesbrough, Billingham or elsewhere on Teesside, the practical step is to ask on the call whether in-person lessons are available near you, or whether lessons would be online.
Which lessons run locally and which run online?
Priority Education’s website does not publish which lessons run in person and which online, so confirm this on the call. The weekly timetable and lesson times are also only given on the call-back.
What the site does list is the format of each option: one-hour weekly lessons in science, maths and English, with twice weekly recommended in exam years; four-hour Revision Booster days split 9:30 to 11:30 and 12:30 to 14:30; one-hour school-holiday sessions in science and maths; Exam Question Workshops; and YouTube Live revision sessions for Years 7 to 11. A Booster day with a lunch break in the middle is the kind of session where location matters, so ask where the one you want takes place.
| Option | Subjects listed | Format |
|---|---|---|
| Weekly lessons | GCSE science, maths, English; A-level biology, chemistry, physics, maths; maths from Year 8 | 1 hour, weekly; twice weekly recommended in Years 10 to 13 |
| Revision Boosters | GCSE science, maths, English; A-level biology, chemistry, maths (not every date) | 4-hour day, 9:30-11:30 and 12:30-14:30, before mocks and final exams |
| School-holiday sessions | Science and maths | 1 hour, exam questions or a specific topic |
| YouTube Live sessions | Revision for Years 7 to 11 | Live on YouTube |
Which subjects can a Teesside student take?
A Teesside student can take GCSE science (the site’s revision sessions cover combined and triple), GCSE maths, GCSE English Language and Literature, and A-level biology, chemistry, physics and maths with Priority Education. Maths runs from Year 8 to Year 13, and the site also lists KS3 tuition.
Each subject has its own page: online GCSE science tuition, GCSE maths tutor, GCSE English tutor, A-level chemistry tutor, A-level biology tutor and A-level physics tutor. The overview is on the tutoring hub.
Which exam boards do Teesside schools use?
Teesside schools choose their own exam boards, and only some publish the list, so check your child’s school website or ask the school directly. The one local list verified for this page is Conyers School in Yarm, which uses AQA for biology, chemistry, physics, combined science, English Language and English Literature, Pearson Edexcel 1MA1 for Higher maths and OCR J560 for Foundation maths.
Other schools in Stockton-on-Tees, Middlesbrough and Billingham may use different boards, and none is listed here that could not be confirmed from the school’s own site. Priority Education’s site says it teaches “all exam board curriculum”, so the board does not decide whether they can help; it decides which papers the lessons practise. Bring the board and specification code to the call.
How do I book a Teesside tutor?
You fill in the short form on the enquiry page and a Priority Education teacher calls you back, free and without obligation. The call covers your child’s needs and what is available, including lesson times, prices and where lessons take place, which the website does not publish.
Have your child’s year group, subjects, exam board, current grade and target grade ready. Revision Booster days are booked in advance and the site says the ones before exams are especially popular, so for a May or June Warmup, call well before the spring.
What does a Teesside tutor cost?
Priority Education does not publish prices; they are given on the free call-back. Maths runs in small groups of similar ability and target grade, which generally costs less per child than one-to-one; ask how the other subjects are grouped.
For context before you call, read tutoring cost per hour in the UK and small-group tuition vs one-to-one.
