We have met with Bruton Lloyd’s staff. In addition, 20 clients and 25 tutors completed an on-line survey (sent to 181 clients and 75 tutors) and we followed this up with additional short phone interviews with some of those surveyed.
Founded in 2006 by Russian-born friends Ekaterina Ametistova and Anna Kunitsyna, who met at Moscow State University while doing master’s degrees (maths for Ekaterina; physics for Anna).

The 11+ is the entrance exam procedure for getting your brightish little button into a fee-paying or state grammar school. Much of the country abolished the 11+ several decades ago for state schools, but a few local authorities, such as Bucks and Kent, retained a large number of grammar schools and run county-wide entrance tests.

For the former, most clients live within 10 miles of St Albans, although they have clients across Hertfordshire and all north and northwest London postcodes. Even with online tutoring, clients tend…
Review snapshot: An innovator and authority in the industry. And a disruptor too – having re-invented the usual model of how tutors are employed to ultimately give the client a better experience.
Review snapshot: Home schooling is their bread and butter, accounting for well over half their clients. A handful are in school some of the week (so-called flexi-schoolers) but most learn entirely from home, with Golden Circle creating a bespoke daytime curriculum delivered by a team of teacher-trained tutors. Majority are…
