Private candidate/exams only

I used Macclesfield college when I decided to resit my A-levels. I struggled to find somewhere that would accept me as a private candidate - MCT were very organised and easy to contact/quick to respond to any queries, I would highly recommend & will be using them again.

We have used Macclesfield Tutorial…

We have used Macclesfield Tutorial College a number of times over the years for 1-on-1 tutoring for our children when we have felt it was warranted.

They provide excellent facilities for use outside of school hours and help children fill in the blanks that are sometimes missed in school classes of 30.

I would highly recommend.

A first-class College with a brilliant and dedicated team

Our son has taken two exams at Macclesfield Tutorial College and our experience has been highly positive. The team are all absolutely lovely to deal with, extremely helpful and supportive, as well as thoroughly knowledgeable and professional. They put students at ease when sitting exams, and the small, more compact setting is a great help for those who are more anxious. They gave us a lot of invaluable advice which enabled our son to prepare for the exams and made the process so much easier. It was a pleasure to deal with everyone at Macclesfield Tutorial College and I highly recommend them.

Excellent support for home schoolers

Having chosen to home school, we were astonished at the lack of support from the local authority when it came to applying for GCSEs. Without the help provided by Macclesfield tutorial college, I don't know what we would have done. They supported us every step of the way and I will be eternally grateful.

Knowledgeable, Friendly and Extremely Dedicated.

When we attempted to find an Exam Centre willing to host our Home-Educated daughter for her GCSEs, we really struggled. Her exam Access Arrangements, relating to health issues and SEN, were too onerous for our local schools and colleges to help and after many months of trying it began to look like she would be unable to sit her exams. Thankfully, we were fortunate enough to receive a recommendation for Macclesfield Tutorial College, who have a long history of supporting young people with Additional Needs. From the moment of our first approach, the support we received was outstanding. The staff at MTC are knowledgeable, friendly and extremely dedicated. They helped us to navigate the complexities associated with finalising her Access Arrangements, and in the end were able to secure us the opportunity for our daughter to be Invigilated at home. They even arranged a home visit to advise on the most suitable set-up for the exams, and to ensure that our daughter met at least one of her Invigilators ahead of the ‘real thing’ - an absolute gift given her significant anxiety ahead of the exams themselves. My husband and I cannot thank the staff of MTC enough for the part they played in our daughter’s success. We recommend their services without hesitation.
