Exam-board aware support<\/span><\/p>\n

IGCSE support that starts with the exam board, not a generic lesson plan<\/h1>\n

Cambridge, Pearson Edexcel and OxfordAQA can differ in syllabus structure, paper style, mark schemes and exam sessions. We ask about the exam board early so tutoring, marking and revision priorities can be scoped responsibly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Cambridge<\/h3>\n

Support may focus on syllabus coverage, paper structure, command words, extended responses and practical-style questions where relevant.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n

\n

Pearson Edexcel<\/h3>\n

Support may focus on specification fit, calculator or non-calculator practice, assessment style and mark-scheme wording.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n

\n

OxfordAQA<\/h3>\n

Support may focus on specification requirements, question style and the student\u2019s school or exam-route expectations.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

What we check before recommending support<\/h2>\n

The goal is to avoid selling lessons before the route is clear enough to teach properly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Question<\/th>\nWhy it matters<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
Which exam board and syllabus?<\/td>\nLesson materials and mark-scheme expectations can differ.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Which paper route or tier?<\/td>\nFoundation, higher, extended or subject-specific routes change priorities.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
School student or private candidate?<\/td>\nPrivate-candidate families may need planning questions before tutoring starts.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
May\/June or Oct\/Nov session?<\/td>\nThe timeline affects whether regular tutoring or revision sprint support is realistic.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n
