Written by the company

Up Learn is the UK's leading A Level and GCSE platform, helping students achieve top grades through expert teaching, personalised learning, and 24/7 AI and human tutor support.

Our courses cover A Level Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Maths, Economics and Psychology, as well as GCSE Combined Science, with exam-board specific content for AQA, Edexcel, OCR and Cambridge International. Behind every lesson is a team of subject specialists, learning scientists, and educators obsessed with one thing: making top grades a reality for every student.

Our platform adapts in real time to each individual - identifying gaps, guiding revision, and building the exam technique needed to reach A/A* at A Level and grade 8 or above at GCSE. The results back it up: 97% of students who complete an A Level course go on to achieve A* or A.

We believe every student deserves access to outstanding education, which is why for every course purchased, we give a free course to a student who needs it. We've provided over 50,000 Up Learn Scholarships across the UK so far.

Students and families often tell us they value how supported they feel, from the quality of teaching to the responsiveness of our team, from first login to results day.

We genuinely welcome honest feedback. Reviews help us celebrate our students' results, and fuel our mission to give every learner the most effective path to success.

Our money back guarantee

A/A* or 8-8

We know what students are capable of when they have the right support. That's why we don't just promise progress - we guarantee top grades. If you complete our course and don't achieve at least an A at A Level, or 8-8 at GCSE, we'll give you your money back.

AVOID - DO NOT READ PURCHASED REVIEWS

Uplearn is the newest piece of garbage, written by Chatgpt in react and forced down the throats of people who have no other option.
The website forces you to watch their low-quality and watered down videos, which could be condensed tenfold, but are not. If you try to watch them at 2x or skip any part, the video is then not counted as watched. You can not leave it as playing and do anything else either, because at seemingly random timestamps the website throws questions.
The £400 promise would make anyone who knows anything about economics facepalm - the astronomically high cost creates an image of eliteness, and presumption of high quality, and when most people do not get the promised A/A* by the website - they just get their money back, which means they are still in high margin profit, no matter what!
The website is also poorly made as far as frontend design goes. Many things don't work, don't fit any real aspect ratios, there is no proper mobile compatibility (are we back in 1994?).

Overall - the educational equivalent of a ponzi scheme, except instead of the upper chain member getting the money of his referrals, the owner takes all the money and provides a subpar, inadequate, misconfigured, untested and unfinished product.

Hi Irop,

We haven’t been able to find an account matching this name, so we’re unable to connect your experience with any of our students. Please reach out to our team at team@uplearn.co.uk so we can help directly.

We’re proud that thousands of students have achieved A and A* grades with us, and we’re always working to improve both the learning experience and our technology.

All of our courses are created by subject experts and built with active learning principles. That’s why videos include interactive questions - to ensure students stay engaged and make real progress rather than just passively watching content.

Using 2x speed should still mark your videos as watched, so I’d really like to investigate what’s happening for you there.

We don’t use any multi-level marketing. Our only referral programme is a simple one: a student shares a discount link with a friend, and if that friend purchases, both receive £20 as a thank you.

We’d really value the chance to resolve this for you, so please do get in touch.

Best wishes,
The Up Learn Team

Best £399 you will ever spend

The £399 I spent on my son's UpLearn package was the best money I ever spent. Much cheaper than a tutor. I only wish I had done it at the start of Year 12 - we didn't even know about UpLearn until the start of Year 13. My son didn't meet the criteria to qualify for the money back guarantee as he started in October of Year 13 (so the time was too hard to commit) but that was all irrelevant; he got an A in any case and met his top uni offer. As a teacher, I could see how well-organised and diagnostic the platform is. It made revision easy and he was able to ace the multiple choice section of the exam, which I am sure was a grade booster.

Thank you UpLearn.

Hi Saira,

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re over the moon to hear that Up Learn helped your son achieve an A and meet his top university offer. Huge congratulations from everyone here at Up Learn! 🌟

Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience, and we wish you both continued success as your son embarks on the next stage of his academic journey! 🚀

Brilliant support for my child’s A-Level studies

As a parent, I can’t recommend Uplearn highly enough. It has been absolutely transformative for my child’s revision. The platform explains even the most difficult topics in such a clear and engaging way — short videos, interactive questions, and spaced repetition that really make the knowledge stick. My son now feels far more confident and focused in his studies, and it takes so much of the stress out of revision for both of us.

One feature I particularly value is the parental access. It’s so easy to follow my child’s progress without having to nag or worry. I can see exactly how much time he spends studying. A tiny tip for the Uplearn team — it would be wonderful to also have daily tracking, not just weekly, so I could better support him with time management.

What really impressed me is how the smart system keeps the student engaged. It doesn’t allow them to just “sit there” — it constantly checks understanding with different styles of questions, so focus is always maintained. For us, Uplearn hasn’t replaced a tutor entirely, but it has been an excellent revision course and a huge boost to independent learning.

I also appreciate Uplearn’s fair pricing. During summer holidays we decided to take a break, and I was able to cancel the subscription easily — yet all the progress was saved. When we reactivated after two months, everything was right there waiting for us, which was such a relief.

Overall, Uplearn has made revision more effective, less stressful, and genuinely enjoyable for my child. A brilliant platform and highly recommended to other families!

I highly recommend UpLearn to anyone…

I highly recommend UpLearn to anyone studying Economics at A-level.
The videos are literally little golden nuggets, they explain even the most complex concepts in a super concise and (fun) manner.
You’ll literally sit there and think: wait… that actually makes so much sense!

The practise questions right after the videos is the best way to see if you really understand the concept.
I love how UpLearn also has a scholarships program for students who may not be able to afford it.
UpLearn will LITERALLY save your grades!

Highly recommend Uplearn for Maths!

I really like the practice questions and exams Uplearn provide for Maths. They are highly useful for doing exam practice! I do wish they had more subjects, for example Geography. Also, an addition of a past paper/revision tracker may also be useful!

I found Up Learn very useful

I found Up Learn very useful. It helped me boost my grade and achieve an A* in A level chemistry Alhamdulillah. I am thankful to my school who gave me the opportunity to access Up Learn through the scholarship. Up Learn also helped me in A level Maths as the short yet detailed videos made it simpler and easier to understand challenging topics; it was not very time consuming either.

We have not been able to locate your account, so please can you reach out to us via the chat channel so we can understand a bit more about your experience?

The Up Score only ever decreases slightly over time to reflect memory decay.
This ensures that content is periodically revisited, keeping your knowledge sharp and helping you perform to an A/A* standard in your final exams.

This minimal decrease rarely affects eligibility for our money-back guarantee.

Absolutely fantastic platform!

UpLearn is an absolutely fantastic revision platform. I actually used it to teach myself the OCR A Level chemistry course ahead of applying to study Graduate Entry Medicine as a mature student. I was able to teach myself the course in 6 months using UpLearn's resources almost exclusively. The videos are well structured and clear, constant testing reinforces understanding and their tutors were super responsive to my queries, as stupid as some of them were! Highly recommend.

Uplearn helped me go from CCD to AAB

My School bought UpLearn in Jan 2024 when I was in year 12, since they had done that, my revision focus, intake of knowledge and memory of the material significantly improved, and that's because Uplearn teaches the content in a clear and simple way that helps the information incorporate itself in your mind so effectively. Uplearn is especially effective for revision when you pair it with other revision techniques such as flashcards, blurting, mindmaps and exam question practise. Uplearn contributed to bringing my end of year grades from CCD in year 12 to AAB in year thirteen, Alhamdulillah.

Ocr physics feels like a scam

ocr a physics a level feels like a scam. it may be the most useless course out there and would not recommend to anyone unless you are looking for something to waste your money on. The course is based entirely on someone elses youtube channel that you can find for free and just gives you unrealistic basic and easy questions that you would never find for a level. I used £500 on this just to find out i could of gotten it for free on youtube.

Hi Anastasia,

Thank you for sharing your honest feedback with us and apologies we missed replying to your review here. We’re really sorry to hear that you feel this way about the Physics course 🙏

Our courses are designed to build confidence step by step. We start with basic recall questions to ensure your foundations are solid, then move on to tougher exam-style questions and full practice papers. If you're still studying in Year 13 now, we'd really love to work with you to see which sections might be more useful to you.

Our OCR Physics course was one of our first courses and while we did collaborate with Lewis Matheson on this course, only 10% of the original YouTube videos remain on the platform. The remaining 90% consists of our expertly designed lessons, mastery quizzes, and exclusive OCR-specific exam practice papers.

Please could you reach out to us at team@uplearn.co.uk or via our live chat? We'd love to support you directly.

UpLearn truly made the difference

UpLearn truly made the difference in my A-Level Psychology exams. I gained access to UpLearn through a scholarship funded by my school. The programme specialises in active recall which is particularly useful for subjects that require intense knowledge and content.
