Unlocking Academic Success And Confidence

This report found that 82% of UK parents believe that a child’s emotional well-being is closely tied to their academic performance - higher than any other country in Europe.

This GoStudent report has found that for 3 in 4 students, one-to-one personalised tutoring increases their academic performance by up to three grades.

The findings demonstrate the potential for personalised tutoring to substantially increase academic achievement and relieve classroom pressure. Notably, significant improvement was found in maths. 80% of students who received maths tutoring for 12 months improved by up to three grades, demonstrating the subject's potential for dramatic progress with consistent, personalised support.

The research also found that 90% of students who increased their confidence improved their grades and is a critical component of academic success. Within the context of education, one in two students defined confidence as feeling prepared for exams and assessments.

The study also sheds light on how confidence varies by age. Primary school children experienced the highest boost in confidence, with 82% reporting increased confidence after 1:1 tutoring lessons. In contrast, 76% of college-aged students reported increased confidence after 1:1 tutoring lessons.

Fostering confidence at a young age sets a strong foundation for academic success and resilience. This is vital in a context where success at school contributes significantly to emotional well-being. The report found that 82% of UK parents believe that a child’s emotional well-being is closely tied to their academic performance - higher than any other country in Europe.
