    Predicted Grades

    We do not provide predicted grades or references to private candidates, as these are usually based on a student’s ongoing work, progress tracking, and teacher assessments within the school. Since private candidates do not attend our lessons or submit regular coursework, we are unable to make a fair or accurate judgment of their academic performance. If you require predicted grades or a reference, you may wish to:

    • Approach a qualified tutor who has worked with you over a period of time and can provide an informed assessment.
    • Contact a tuition centre or distance learning provider where you are formally enrolled, as they may be able to issue them.
