The Stephen Perse Foundation is Cambridge's flagship IB Diploma school, and The Leys School runs the IB DP alongside A-Level — both feed heavily into University of Cambridge, Imperial, UCL and US-Ivy applications. IB Business Management HL is the standard route for Cambridge applicants targeting Natural Sciences, Engineering, Medicine or Economics, where colleges look closely at HL 7s plus a strong Internal Assessment and Extended Essay. Stephen Perse IB IA and EE deadlines fall through Year 12 Term 3 and Year 13 Term 1, colliding with the December Cambridge interview window for the same cohort. Our IB DP Business Management tutors are IB-trained examiners and Cambridge PhDs who handle paper technique, IA/EE supervision and the TMUA/ESAT/STEP overlay — at £11/hour against a local market that routinely charges £60–100/hour for personal in-home tuition.
Exam boards we cover
HL Business Studies is the standard route for The Stephen Perse Foundation, The Leys School and other Cambridge-area IB World Schools students targeting top medicine, engineering or quantitative university courses. Heavier content and a more demanding internal assessment.
SL Business Studies suits Cambridge Diploma students keeping a balanced six-subject load. Same internal assessment framework, lighter syllabus depth.
Syllabus coverage
Our IB Business Management tutors cover the full specification with extra depth on the topics where Cambridge students most consistently lose marks.
Sectors, stakeholders and external environment (STEEPLE).
Organisational structures, leadership and motivation theories.
Final accounts, ratio analysis and investment appraisal.
Marketing mix, market research and international marketing.
Production, quality, location and supply chain.
Ansoff matrix, Porter's five forces and BCG matrix.
Research project framing, primary research and evaluation.
IB Paper 1, 2 and HL extension mark-scheme drilling.

What we fix
How we fix it:Around 25–30% of senior students in Cambridge apply to Oxbridge. We layer Business Management sessions against the October 15 UCAS deadline, November admissions tests (TMUA, ESAT, NSAA, PAT), December college interviews at Trinity, King's and St John's, and post-offer STEP I/II/III preparation through January–June.
How we fix it:The Perse School and The Stephen Perse Foundation run mock weeks in late January with results fed directly into predicted grades and Oxbridge references. We back-plan Business Management revision blocks against each school's exact paper schedule and examiner.
How we fix it:IB DP candidates at The Stephen Perse Foundation and The Leys School hit IA drafts in Year 12 Term 3 and final EE submission in Year 13 Term 1. We supervise Business Management IAs and EEs to IB-criterion standard without crossing the authenticity line.
How we fix it:Hills Road is one of the UK's largest Oxbridge feeders — internal competition for the top Business Management grades is brutal. Our examiner-level tutors specialise in the AQA and Edexcel papers Hills Road uses and the STEP/TMUA/ESAT overlay.
Why Combo Tutors
Our Cambridge Business Management tutors are matched to the exact route a student is sitting — the student's current sixth-form qualification, AQA A-Level at Hills Road, IB DP at Stephen Perse or The Leys — and to the exact examiner who marks those papers.
For Oxbridge-bound Business Management students we layer admissions-test prep (TMUA, ESAT, STEP, NSAA, PAT, MAT) and December college interview practice against schoolwork — not bolted on at the end.
Personal in-home tutors in Cambridge routinely charge £60–100/hour. Our online 1-to-1 Business Management tuition with PhD researchers and current examiners starts at £11/hour with the first lesson free.
Mrs Catherine Whittaker
IB Business Management · The Perse School, Cambridge
Our son sat Business Management at The Perse and was offered a place at Trinity College Cambridge after his December interview. The TMUA and STEP work the tutor did with him from Year 12 made the difference.
Dr James Robertson
IB Business Management · The Stephen Perse Foundation, Cambridge
Stephen Perse IB Business Management HL with a strong IA and EE — the tutor knew the IB criteria cold and worked around our December Cambridge interview prep at the same time.
Sophie M., Hills Road Year 13
IB Business Management · Hills Road Sixth Form College, Cambridge
I was at Hills Road sitting AQA Business Management and applying to Cambridge for Natural Sciences. Examiner-level tutoring plus ESAT and NSAA prep got me an A* and an offer.
Sarah M.
Parent of IB Student · London
My daughter was struggling with IB Mathematics HL and had almost given up hope of getting a 7. After just two months of weekly sessions with her Combo Tutors tutor, her confidence soared and she went from a predicted 4 to a final grade of 6. The personalised approach made all the difference—her tutor identified exactly where the gaps were and worked through them systematically.
James P.
Parent of A-Level Student · Manchester
My son started tutoring for A-Level Physics about three months before his exams. His tutor was incredibly patient and broke down complex topics like electromagnetic induction into simple, intuitive steps. He ended up getting an A* which we genuinely didn't think was possible. I'd recommend Combo Tutors to any parent who wants a tutor that actually cares about your child's progress.
Priya K.
Parent of GCSE Student · Birmingham
We needed help with GCSE Science for my son who found chemistry particularly challenging. His tutor made the sessions engaging and relatable—using real-world examples that finally made reactions and bonding click for him. He improved by two grades and, more importantly, actually enjoys science now.
