By: Christian Brooks – SeaPRwire – Parents still write cheques for tutoring with almost no proof of what the hours actually buy. Hourly rates give a number. They do not show how many hours it takes to move a grade or whether the result sticks. That opacity is the real cost centre in private tuition. The Profs has now put three years of verified outcomes on the table and forced the question into the open.
On 2 October 2026 the company published results covering 2023 to 2025 based on 484 student responses. It claims to be the first tutoring firm to release three consecutive years of verified data broken down by subject and level. A-Level figures show 70 percent of students reached A*-A in 2025. Across the full three-year span 91 percent achieved A*-B. A*-A attainment rose 21 percent between 2023 and 2025. In Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Mathematics & Quantitative Sciences the A*-B rate sat at 90 percent. The average grade lift in 2025 was +2.0 after 24 hours of tutoring. At undergraduate level 93 percent secured a 2:1 or higher over the three years. In 2025 alone 57 percent earned a First, nearly twice the national average. The same +2.0 grade increase arrived after 21 hours. University admissions data for 2024-25 recorded 99 percent of applicants gaining their first or second choice. Two-thirds of offers came from a Top 10 UK university. Seventy percent of Oxbridge applicants received offers, four times the national rate. CEO and Co-Founder Leo Evans framed the numbers as an investment return. He cited government data that a Top 20 university degree is worth roughly half a million pounds in extra lifetime earnings. Richard Fitzgerald, Head of Group Marketing, noted that a student can move from a C to an A with an average of 23 hours. The Profs was founded in 2014, tutors more than 10,000 students a year across more than 120 countries, holds the 2026 King’s Award for Enterprise, and has remained the highest-rated tutoring company on Trustpilot UK since 2016.
The commercial move is clear. Publishing verified multi-year outcomes turns marketing claims into measurable evidence. Competitors that still sell hours without tracking grade movement now face a credibility gap. Parents who once accepted vague promises can demand the same transparency. The data also gives The Profs a pricing and conversion advantage. When a firm can show that 24 hours produce a two-grade lift, the conversation shifts from cost per session to total investment required for a target result. The next measurable test is whether other providers follow with equally detailed, independently verifiable series. Until they do, the published numbers remain the only public benchmark. Families should treat any tutoring proposal that cannot match this level of disclosure as incomplete.
