Our No Parent Policy — explained properly

Why children learn better without an audience

Children behave differently when a parent is watching — they check for reactions, hold back from guessing, and worry about getting things wrong in front of the person they most want to impress. Without an audience, they take more risks, ask more questions, and build genuine independence. Tutors can also give every child their full attention without managing a room of adults.

What makes it safe to step away

• Every member of staff holds an Enhanced DBS certificate and has completed safeguarding training.
• Children are signed in on arrival and released only to the named adult agreed at drop-off.
• The learning space is supervised at all times, with three paediatric first-aiders on the team.
• We never photograph a child's face or show their name in any photo.
• Read the full detail on our Safeguarding & Your Child's Safety page.

Where you can wait

You're welcome to use our on-site waiting area, or pop to one of the cafés a short walk away — sessions last one hour, and we'll call you immediately if your child needs you.

Exceptions — always available when needed

• Additional needs or medical requirements: a parent can be present by prior arrangement.
• Younger or anxious children: settling-in sessions with you nearby until they're comfortable.
• First visit: you're with your child throughout the free assessment, so you'll see exactly how we work before ever stepping away.

Staying in the loop

Not being in the room doesn't mean being in the dark. You receive a written progress report every month, and a quick word at pick-up whenever there's something worth sharing.
