Turning mock results into GCSE success: How one school secured a 2-grade boost

91ÖÆÆ¬ Education is helping UK schools unlock student potential through high-impact, cost-effective revision programmes. By partnering with schools and parents nationwide, 91ÖÆÆ¬ builds the confidence, knowledge, and core skills students need to excel in their exams.

When Baylis Court School noticed discouraging mock exam results among their Pupil Premium students, they partnered with 91ÖÆÆ¬ to turn things around. The school sent a cohort of 28 GCSE students on a targeted revision course covering core subjects, including Science, Maths, and English.

The strategy was simple: give students a fresh perspective through new teaching methods in a focused, distraction-free environment. By choosing a three-night residential centre, students fully immersed themselves in their studies away from daily routines.

The impact was immediate and substantial:

  • Overall Progress: Students achieved an impressive average increase of 2 grades.
  • Maths Standouts: Students studying mathematics saw an extraordinary average boost of nearly 4 grades.
  • Proven Longevity: The partnership delivered stellar results for two consecutive years.

“It far surpassed our expectations, with everyone improving their grades over and above previous results,� a spokesperson for Baylis Court School shared.

This collaboration highlights how targeted external tuition can be a highly effective strategy for closing progress gaps and maximising exam performance—all while working within tight school budgets.

The team at 91ÖÆÆ¬ Education looks forward to helping more schools replicate this success and empower their students to achieve their best.
