The Good Schools Guide review of JK Educate

Lorrae Jaderberg and Katie Krais run a tight ship from their Hampstead Garden Suburb offices, with the help of one full-time client relations manager (who is the first point of call for all parents) and a team of part-time staff. Both women have a strong history in school leadership and SENCO that spans across the state and private sectors, having originally met when they job shared a year 4 class teaching role back in 1999. Katie went onto become head of years 3, 4, 5 and 6 – as well as being a teacher governor - and Lorrae was appointed as a deputy head teacher.

Review snapshot: ‘It’s on the more expensive side, particularly for more experienced tutors, but it’s absolutely my favourite. They’re honest, on the ball and have the best quality tutors,’ concluded another parent. read more
Gabbitas Educational Consultants overview

Review snapshot: ‘They won’t just tell you what you want to hear and take your money – they are realistic with you, and that includes bringing tutoring to an end if they feel it might become a crux or has run its course.’ read more
