Welcome
Newbury Study Hall is an independent provider of extra tuition for GCSE, A-level & academic English exams.
After school · Saturdays · Holidays
Programmes are transformative additions to normal schooling – small tutorial groups with an unwavering focus on exam success.
Added around ordinary school timetables, OISE tuition cultivates the academic conscientiousness characteristic of a good education in pursuit of excellent results.
Part of the OISE group established in 1973, Newbury Study Hall has tutored international pupils since 1995. From 2026, programmes are available to UK students in Newbury to complement local school timetables.

The OISE tutoring style
OISE masterclasses are tutored, not taught. They tailor principles and techniques of the Oxford tutorial & Cambridge supervision systems to benefit teenagers facing exams.
Students not only address difficulties with topics already encountered, they pre-learn material their schools will soon teach. Arriving at school already familiar with new topics transforms school into revision.
Students should target a grade or more of improvement per term. Those attending throughout a GCSE or A-level programme should target top grades by exam time.
Tutors are highly demanding and deeply compassionate, ensuring every individual student feels understood and challenged.
Extra tuition can be an academic lifestyle choice – not a crisis response, but a fulcrum to leverage ordinary schooling into an exceptional education, sitting alongside sports and music lessons as a natural way to help children thrive.
Getting Started
- Contact us to discuss your needs
- Attend a first session before paying
- Enrol for a full programme
Fees for after-school & Saturday lessons, including the first, are due before the second session. If you are not happy to continue after the first lesson, there is therefore nothing to pay.
Fees for intensive holiday programmes are due two weeks before the start date.
For Students Aged 16+
Full A-level and GCSE programmes provide a distinctive alternative to large colleges and sixth forms. The experience is more akin to home schooling whilst retaining the guiding structures and systems of formal education.
