Year 12 starts feeling like a different subject for most A-Level students. Our Baldock A-Level tutors close the GCSE-to-A-Level gap before end-of-Year-12 mocks lock predicted grades in for the year ahead.

A BALDOCK A-LEVEL TURNAROUND
In Year 12, A-Level Maths stops looking like GCSE Maths. Grade 8 GCSE students find themselves middling Cs by October. A Baldock A-Level tutor traces where the GCSE foundation isn't enough yet, then A-Level tutoring closes the gap before end-of-Year-12 exams.
"The Degree Gap helped my child go from Cs to As. They have a great selection of tutors who not only assist with the curriculum but also helped with university choices and applications."

I wish I had found The Degree Gap when I was sitting my school exams. They helped with my dissertation work and without their help I am not sure I would have graduated so successfully and landed a successful job.

Get in touch and we'll connect you with the right A-Level tutor for your child. We'll ask a few questions about their subjects, year group, and exam board — and introduce you to a tutor who fits.
Year 12 is the most common starting point for Baldock families, especially for A-Level Maths tutoring where the GCSE-to-A-Level jump hits hardest. Get it nailed before end-of-Year-12 mocks, and predicted grades arrive higher into Year 13. Year 13 January mocks are the cut-off for most UCAS predicted grades, so starting A-Level tutoring after Christmas of Year 13 is too late for most universities.
Yes. When we match, exam board is part of the criteria. AQA Maths and Edexcel Maths are different specs. OCR Chemistry and AQA Chemistry are different specs. We match A-Level tutors who've actually taught your child's spec, not the generic subject.
Yes. EPQ structure, research methodology, the artefact-or-essay choice, and the final write-up. The work stays your child's own, but tutoring shapes the question, the structure, and where the marks sit. The EPQ counts towards UCAS, and a good tutor knows how examiners read it.
Yes. Most Cambridge-corridor degree apprenticeships open to Baldock students screen on predicted grades, application essays, and STEM aptitude. A-Level tutoring lifts predicted grades into the AAB band most schemes ask for, and tutors help shape the application essay around the scheme's selection criteria.
