Level 3 Understanding mental health
Completed course in September 2024. Still no certificate. Oxbridge state they can’t get a date with the NCFE for quality assurance to double mark the work because it’s a “new course”. We are now approaching June 2025 and still none the wiser. Totally unacceptable!

We're pleased to confirm that our Head of Student Support has now been in direct contact with you to resolve this matter urgently. We are working closely with NCFE to finalise the quality assurance process for this new course and ensure your certificate is issued as quickly as possible.
Thank you for your continued patience and understanding as we work to rectify this.
Patrick McAnea's Outstanding Support
I have been absolutely blown away by the support Patrick has given my son as he prepared for his English language and literature GCSEs. As well as being super reactive and prompt in his responses, Patrick has given ongoing exceptional feedback about my son's work which has enabled him to rapidly and radically improve his work and therefore his chances of getting as high a grade as possible.
Honestly I don't think I can even write a rating that will do Patrick justice here because the support he gave was beyond what we could ever have hoped for let alone have imagined. He identified Elouan's weaknesses and gave very practical suggestions to turn these into strengths. Patrick's enthusiasm about helping his students stood out for us and remained unwavering over the months he has worked with my son. Our initial video call meeting was pivotal in that Patrick helped quashed my son's anxieties over corresponding with him by making him feel very at ease. Working with him has been an absolute pleasure aside the fact he was a real Godsend. Patrick told us on day one he was committed to making a difference for young people unable for whatever reason to access mainstream education. I can confirm he is doing just that. What jumped out from all the communications with him was that he actually cared on a human level (so rare in so many interactions these days and yet so important for children who are not in school) as well as on an academic level. He is the Oxbridgehomelearning hub's number one asset as far as we are concerned. Thank you Patrick.

Our Heartfelt Thanks for Your Wonderful Review!
We are absolutely chuffed and genuinely moved by your incredibly kind words about Patrick's support for your son's English GCSEs. This review is, without a doubt, one of the most powerful and authentic accounts of the impact our tutors have, and it truly speaks to the very essence of what we strive to achieve every single day.
It's clear from your feedback that Patrick embodies everything we champion in our tutors and the unparalleled support we promise. You've highlighted how he went "beyond what we could ever have hoped for let alone have imagined," which is precisely the standard of dedication and personalised care we aim for with everyone. His ability to provide "ongoing exceptional feedback" that led to "rapid and radical improvement" showcases the profound academic impact our tutors deliver.
What truly resonates with us, and what makes this review so special, is your emphasis on Patrick's humanity and genuine care. In a world where interactions can often feel transactional, your observation that Patrick "actually cared on a human level...as well as on an academic level" perfectly articulates the invaluable connection our tutors forge with their students. This goes hand-in-hand with our commitment to making a tangible difference for young people outside of mainstream education, and we're so proud that Patrick is "doing just that." His unwavering enthusiasm and ability to quash anxieties and make your son feel "very at ease" during that pivotal initial video call are hallmarks of a truly exceptional educator who understands the importance of building confidence alongside knowledge.
You've truly articulated what makes our tutor support unlimited – it's not just about access; it's about the depth of engagement, the personalised insights, and the unwavering commitment to each student's success and well-being. We firmly believe that while our materials are meticulously crafted , it's the dedicated, compassionate, and expert guidance from tutors like Patrick that truly unlocks a student's potential and transforms their learning journey, but it is also the motivation, engagement and desire of the student - so well done for actively participating.
Thank you for sharing such an honest, real, and truly wonderful experience. Your review is a powerful testament to the opportunities available to all our students and a brilliant showcase for prospective learners. We are incredibly fortunate to have tutors like Patrick as part of the Oxbridge team; he is indeed an asset.
Thank you again for trusting us with your son's education and for so vividly sharing the extraordinary impact of Patrick's work.

A-level computer science is a challenging course and can be hard to understand. However, the recourses provided were very well laid out, making most of the course much easier to comprehend. When requested, tutor help was received quickly with useful advice and many extra beneficial resources if needed. Bottom line, the oxbridge course will help you achieve a good grade in A-level computer science.

Daryl Creek- Personal Tutor
My personal tutor, Daryl Creek has been absolutely amazing. Daryl chased all of my needs extremely quickly and always treated my matters urgently, as well as them always being fully resolved.
To put it into perspective, I am a gap year student taking A Level Sociology in one year. Things really have been quickly paced, but Daryl has always treated my needs like a priority! I will never forget the work he has put in for me.

Our tutors aren't just educators; they are dedicated mentors who consistently go above and beyond, providing the unparalleled support and urgent attention you highlighted. It's precisely this calibre of personalised guidance and their unwavering commitment to our students' success that enables us to produce such successful and highly qualified students.
Your experience as a gap year student tackling A Level Sociology in a single year perfectly illustrates the intense pace and dedication required, and Daryl's ability to not only keep up but to treat your needs as a priority speaks volumes. We know the profound impact our tutors have, and it's reviews like yours that reinforce our belief in their extraordinary abilities.
Thank you for sharing your journey with Daryl; it's a testament to the hard work and passion our entire team pours into every student's learning experience.

Totally Unsuitable Course & Misleading Marketing
It lacks the structure, support, and interaction I
expected from a paid learning program.

Unprompted review
Reply from Oxbridge
We're certainly disappointed to read your review and learn that this is your current view of the courses you are enrolled on to.
Upon reviewing your account, we've noticed that you haven't logged into the learning portal frequently, communicated with us or submitted any work or questions since your enrollment in November of last year.
The only communication we've received from you was your request for an extension (3 days ago) which we advised you was likely unnecessary given the two-year duration.
It's difficult to form an opinion on the structure, support, and interaction of the program without actively engaging with the provided materials and resources on the portal. We're confident that if you were to log in and begin the course, you would find the structure, support, and interaction you're looking for and ultimately benefit from your enrolment..

Long wait for certificate
I took a level 3 Criminolgy course and the course itself was very good and the tutorial reviews were quick and helpful. However, one minus was that although I successfully completed the course early this year I am still waiting for the certificate.i know that the course is adjudicated by a third party, but I still find the wait to be inordinately long. BTW still not received at time of writing 15/05/25.
A quick update since i wrote this piece Oxbridge responded and got the certificate out to me. So, overall i am happy with Oxbridge's perfornance and would defintely use them again.

L3 Early Years Practitioner
Teresa, Faye, Allison, Candice and all others who have provided me with feedback. You have all been extremely wonderful in helping me finalise my coursework! I spent longer than most people would to achieve their L3 as I was very nervous about being a neurodivergent taking online schooling. After I finally was brave to admit and accept that I needed help, they went above and beyond to support me in getting to the final line. Quick to respond, offered great tailored support and really helped me stay at ease. It’s not always easy being a teacher 52 weeks and in education at the same time. I’m very thankful for the help they all gave!

Excellent Student Support
When I reached out to the student support team to request an extension for my courses, each chain of correspondence with them was fast, detailed, polite, professional, and most helpful. They were understanding, and more than happy to assist.
They were patient to answer each question I had thoroughly, and were keen to ensure I felt comfortable with my experience with my course so far. It is very reassuring knowing that my A-Level course provider has a friendly and welcoming student support base for younger students like me to approach them with any questions, without judgement, at any time, and a group who appreciate that student life can be tricky, especially with balancing finances and time.
Glad to say with their team I feel supported and encouraged to ask any questions I have, and that assistance is delivered to a very high standard and level.

I was really close to giving up
I was really close to giving up. I’d lost motivation and just wasn’t sure if I could keep going. But after a chat with Stacey at Oxbridge, everything changed. She listened, gave me great advice, and helped me remember why I started this course in the first place.
What really impressed me was how much she knew about my course specifically—it wasn’t just generic advice, it actually made sense for what I was studying. I left the conversation feeling motivated and ready to keep going, which was exactly what I needed at that moment.
To be fair, my tutor has been great too—his feedback is really helpful, and I do feel like I’m making good progress. I know Oxbridge isn’t there to push me to study, but sometimes you just need that little boost, and Stacey gave me exactly that.
Maybe it was luck, or maybe it was just the right time, but either way, I’m really grateful I got through to her.

Disastrous exam registrations
I am a student learning A level Maths, Further Maths, and Physics with Oxbridge, coming to the end of my second year with the company.
After a good start, with an easy and smooth enrolment process with Habib Yousaf, there have been several major issues with my experience with Oxbridge.
With my Further Maths and Physics A level exams starting in two weeks time, I have realised that I have been registered for the incorrect Further Maths exam tier, meaning - at the moment - I am registered to sit an additional optional paper whose content I have not covered. This has happened after I clearly outlined my unit selections on my exam registration form and reiterated them when I was asked to confirm my choices. Now, with very little time left to solve the issue, I am receiving minimal communication. Hopefully this problem can be solved. If not, it will severely jeopardise my chances of getting the grade I want in further maths, not to mention the amount of time I have had to take out from studying in the last week to try and solve a mistake made by Oxbridge.
Last year's exam registration was equally disastrous. I sat Maths in my first year where my supposed "exams officer" stopped answering my emails for several months (and then all together) and did not provide me with the exam registration forms which I had to chase Oxbridge for up until the day of the exam registration deadline. When I was eventually registered, the majority of my personal details were incorrect, which was reflected in my A level certificate, which I had to have amended.
I would strongly suggest using another company should you want to learn ANY course independently.

It appears there was an error on the part of the exam centre with the code, and unfortunately, a few other students experienced the same issue, causing understandable panic.
We have already contacted the exam centre, and they are actively working to rectify this error. Please accept our sincere apologies for this situation on their behalf; this type of error is unacceptable and should not have occurred. We hope this clarifies the situation.
Not very impressed to be honest
Not very impressed to be honest. Better to find material online and book just the exam elsewhere - you still pay extra for the exam anyway so total cost is much higher. And the assistance is poor. I wouldn’t recommend. Spend 700£ and have nothing. Still have to pay extra for exams.

Hi Andra, I cant find your name on our systems or the reference "Andy Pandy" so i shall respond generically to the points made.
As an organisation we want to emphasise that relying solely on materials found online can be risky, especially when preparing for exams. You can't always guarantee the accuracy, relevance, subject-specificity, or up-to-date nature of such resources. Our course materials are carefully curated and regularly updated to align with the exam syllabus, ensuring you have the most reliable information.
Regarding the exam booking, we offer the convenience of booking through us, but we also provide the flexibility to book independently. Both options have their advantages, and we believe in empowering our students to choose what best suits their individual circumstances.
We also want to clarify our approach to tutor support. Our unlimited tutor support is designed to be responsive and effective for flexible learning. We encourage students to actively engage with the course and reach out to their tutors when they need assistance. Our tutors are dedicated to providing support, and this model has proven successful for thousands of our students each year. We find that proactive engagement from the student ensures they receive the timely and specific help they need.
We are sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. We continually strive to provide valuable and effective learning solutions for our students
