  • Standard Monthly Block:  Standard sessions are booked 4 weeks in advance.

  • Termly Blocks: You can book 8-week slots to secure your child’s recurring day and time.

  • No Unpaid Holds: Spaces cannot be held without a deposit and are only guaranteed once payment clears.

  • Late Payment Consequences: The tutor reserves the right to suspend services or offer the slot to another client on the waiting list if payment deadlines are missed.

  • No Sibling or Group Discounts: The £25 hourly rate is already heavily discounted from standard 1:1 rates, so no further discounts apply.
