Diagnostic review<\/span><\/p>\n

A simpler first paid step before committing to lessons<\/h1>\n

A diagnostic review is for families who want more than a free enquiry, but are not ready to buy a full lesson package. We use the student profile, recent work and exam timeline to recommend a realistic next step.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Best for uncertain families<\/h3>\n

Useful when parents are unsure whether the student needs tutoring, mock marking, planning or independent revision.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n

\n

Evidence-led<\/h3>\n

The review works best with a recent mock, topic test, writing sample, school feedback or clear description of the problem.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n

\n

Low management<\/h3>\n

The scope is narrow: review the evidence, identify priorities, then recommend the next service or no paid package yet.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n

\n

Clear conversion path<\/h3>\n

If lessons are appropriate, the review can become a tutoring plan, revision sprint or small group fit check.<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

\n

What the diagnostic should answer<\/h2>\n

The output should help the family make a decision, not create another vague conversation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Question<\/th>\nUseful answer<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
What is the main academic issue?<\/td>\nTopic gap, weak method, exam technique, writing structure, time management or unclear exam route.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Does the student need lessons?<\/td>\nNot yet, short revision support, mock marking, planning, one-to-one lessons or small group if suitable.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
What should happen first?<\/td>\nA small action the family can understand before paying for a larger package.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
What evidence is still missing?<\/td>\nMock paper, school comments, writing sample, exam board, expected exam session or availability.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n
\n
\n
Important:<\/strong> diagnostic review is not an official grade prediction and does not guarantee results. It is a practical academic judgement to choose the next step responsibly.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n
