At Westminster Tutors we have been successfully preparing our sixth form students for entry to the top universities for well over 90 years, and our students’ university destinations are second to none. The collegiate atmosphere and the academic calibre of the teaching community make Westminster Tutors independent sixth form college an ideal stepping stone to university, and providing expert guidance on university applications is central to the support we provide.
Each year, 95% of our students progress on to higher education, and the vast majority of them take up places at the UK’s top universities.
In 2026 initial data already shows that we have had our best year ever for university destinations. Over 70% of all our students are confirmed at Russell Group (higher tariff) universities and over 80% of our A level retake students are confirmed at the Russell Group!
