We transform lives through trusted, nurturing special needs tuition
We won the Tuition Business of the Year award in the 2022 National Tutoring Awards (runners-up in 2023, 2024 & 2025). We were also runners-up in the categories Alternative Provision Provider in 2025 and Best Tuition Delivery to Private Clients in 2023. We were also a finalist in the EducationInvestor Awards for SEN Supporter of the Year in 2025.
Bright Heart helps students with learning challenges or SEMH needs, those lacking confidence or motivation, and those who have fallen behind in school. It also provides home-schooling tuition overseen by UK-qualified teachers. Our nurturing approach boosts learning and confidence.
Our experienced team is passionate about helping children and young people achieve their potential. Our education consultants (experienced UK-qualified teachers) take the time to fully understand students’ unique learning needs, ensure that we provide well-matched tutors, and oversee tutoring.
Students receive individual learning plans (ILPs) that cater not only to their academic requirements but also to their SEMH needs. ILPs serve as a roadmap, guiding tutors to deliver tailored tuition that keeps students’ learning on track.
Tutors are carefully screened, personally interviewed by a director, background checked (including Enhanced DBS with children’s barred list check), and met in person. Tutors receive training and guidance on tutoring and safeguarding practices and adhere to our tutoring standards, Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy, and Online Tutoring Policy.
Our tutors have the patience, understanding and necessary experience to ensure that sensitive learning situations are handled with care. Tutors embody Bright Heart’s student-centred approach, taking the time to listen and connect to students, enhancing trust, self-esteem, and self-belief before building on academic abilities.
We cover from Reception to A-level and offer adult support. While we focus on English, maths and science, we cover most subjects. We offer supplementary tuition and interim education, covering the entire curriculum. In addition, we provide help with lifelong skills like study techniques and transition into adulthood.
Bright Heart offers in-person tutoring in London and parts of Surrey and Kent, and online tutoring nationwide and internationally. We work with private clients, local authorities, and schools (we were an accredited National Tutoring Programme (NTP) Tuition Partner).

Amelia our tutor and Bright Heart have helped us reduce stress and create positive experiences around homework, which is an amazing accomplishment. Our specific challenges are being addressed in a calm, understanding and encouraging manner which facilitates the learning process in ways I’m not personally equipped to manage on my own (as a concerned and emotionally involved parent). Thank you everyone at Bright Heart, especially our lovely tutor.

We have used the services of Bright Heart for the last 6 years. Firstly, with my Son, Harvey for his GCSE's and then his A Levels. All of the staff that Bright Heart have put in place for us, have always been outstanidng, in their patience and understanding of the what was required to help our Son through both sets of exams. I cannot thank Bright Heart enough, as they were there when we really needed extra help and support. Our son did extremely well in his GCSE's and A Levels. We have also recommended Bright Heart to friends and they are of the same opinion as us. Over the past couple of years, I have been studying for a GCSE in maths (long story....) and also, I have been studying for a MA in Art History. As an adult who required extra learning and guidance with these two subjects, I have been impressed with the understanding of the two tutors that have worked with me. My lessons were always geared to help and encourage me to try my best and to push me that little be more when needed.
I would happily recommended Bright Heart to anyone to who interested in taking on their services.

I worked hard to ensure that my son had a good EOTAS package put in place but sadly this organisation has let my son down enormously by providing an inadequate tutor and booking exams that clashed.
The worst thing is that this organisation are not taking any responsibility for their mismanagement.
Bright Hearts prepared my son for exams that could not be taken together because the GCSE dates clashed. They also did not put home invigilators in place. They missed the deadline, even though they agreed with the local authority to make “exam arrangements” months before the deadline was due.
Bright Hearts are saying what has happened is “unfortunate” in their response and have not offered any proper accountability, apology or remedy even though I have evidence and other concerns about professional misconduct. I am still waiting for a response to my formal complaint made weeks ago.
I am an educational professional myself and I have successfully changed government policy. I understand integrity. This company lacks integrity.
The company will probably try and take this review down or deny the statements I have made but I have evidence. I am willing to take this review down if the company responds to my very real concerns appropriately. I am also willing to speak to anyone else who has concerns or wants further information because I don’t want this to happen again to another child. It’s too late for my child but I hope this helps someone.

Bright Heart Education is a caring, professional and supportive agency to work for. Their approach encompasses so much more than just focusing on academic success. Pupils' social, emotional and mental health is paramount to them. As one of their tutors, I feel that their holistic approach to tuition enables me to provide support for pupils' academic achievement, as well as their well being.
Bright Heart respects me as a professional and is supportive and appreciative of the work I do. They are excellent at communicating and really care about their team, pupils and pupils' families.

I can’t recommend bright heart enough. Across the process at every point, from initial inquiry through to meeting the right tutor their system works and their people are smart, they listen and have a real sense of your needs and worries as a parent. Lisa our tutor was calm, kind and intuitively followed our child and our needs- it was a difficult journey for us with resistance from our son but Lisa just went with the pace and was absolutely brilliant- and affirming for us as parents and importantly for our son. They really do what they say they do- and have a wonderful approach to working with kids and parents. Thank you guys!

Our Bright Heart tutor has supported our daughter throughout her junior school journey. Always kind and patient she makes the lessons engaging and fun. Having Dyslexia can be challenging but I'm pleased to say my daughter has grown in confidence and now Maths is one of her favourite subjects!
