**About LS Tuition**

LS Tuition, Edinburgh, is an independent tuition service for girls and boys aged 4-13. It was founded in 2020, and its fundamental aim is to provide a supportive environment for children to flourish both personally and academically. It is located within _SPACE_ in the East of Edinburgh, around 15-minutes from Edinburgh City Centre.

At LS Tuition, we aim to promote the holistic development of each of our students and to prepare them for adult life and work. Our tuition services differ for each student as an individual but for all students, teaching content is derived from the Curriculum for Excellence and national benchmarks.

All of our tuition is based on a foundation of health and wellbeing and we place extremely high value not only on achieving academically, but also on supporting the development of confident, resilient individuals who take pride in being an active part of their learning journey.

Our academic results are excellent with our students achieving acceptance into private schools (if undertaking exam entry prep) and being placed into advanced English and Maths groups in school (where this is the goal).
