For various reasons, most people could do with a little extra help in their final year of school. This could be a one-off revision class or an hour of individual tuition per week with your own private tutor. It could even mean moving from the school environment to a more independent college to study the subjects you want with the flexibility you need.

Located in the heart of Edinburgh, Basil Paterson Tutorial College has been helping students prepare for university since 1929. Our approach has always been to treat each student as an individual. That is why we offer a wide range of subjects so that you can study what interests you most; a wide variety of qualifications (Int 2s, Highers, Advanced Highers, GCSEs, A Levels) so you can study to the level of your ability; and we insist on a maximum of 6 students per class so that you get the attention you require to fulfil your potential.

Look around this section of the website to see if a flexible and mature approach to education is right for you. If you require more information or would like to arrange a visit to the college please contact us by phone on +44 (0) 131 225 3802, or e-mail . We look forward to meeting you.
