About Grade Up

Where learning meets opportunity

Positive, enriching childhood experiences lay the foundation for a good and stable adult life. That belief sits at the heart of everything we do at Grade Up.

Our ethos

Every child cared for, nurtured and pushed to their full potential

We at Grade Up pride ourselves on providing an invaluable service to parents and carers. We offer afterschool childcare and tuition at the highest possible level — the safety, physical and emotional wellbeing and happiness of every child in our care is our main priority.
We believe in providing children with opportunities for enrichment — physically, mentally and emotionally — in a place where they can express themselves and feel at home while building a strong academic foundation.

Our story

Started by teachers who wanted to do it properly

Grade Up began in Bradford with a simple frustration: too many children were being taught in large groups by tutors stretched across every subject at once. We knew learning could be more personal — and a lot more fun.
So we built something different. A place with one specialist per subject, small groups, and time for every child to be heard. Somewhere parents could trust with the school run, and children actually looked forward to going.
A decade on, hundreds of families across Bradford count on us for afterschool care, tuition and enrichment — and the ethos we started with hasn’t changed one bit.

Our Mission

To give every child a fun, safe and nurturing place to learn — where a strong academic foundation is built alongside confidence, curiosity and a genuine love of learning.

Our Vision

Positive, enriching childhood experiences lay the foundation for a good and stable adult life. We want to be the place families in Bradford trust to help their children flourish.
