JCQ-approved · Centre 10488
Finding a centre that will enter you for exams is one of the hardest parts of studying outside mainstream school. Excel Tutors makes it clear, professional and genuinely supported — from first enquiry to results day.

Excel Tutors is a JCQ-approved private exam centre in East London (Centre Number 10488) that has been part of the Tower Hamlets community since 2010 — supporting private candidates from first enquiry all the way through to results day.
Whether you are home-educated, an adult learner returning to study, a distance-learning student, an international candidate, or you simply need to resit and improve a grade, you'll deal with real people who know the system — not an automated form and a room full of strangers. We are approved by all the major awarding bodies — Pearson Edexcel, AQA, OCR, WJEC/Eduqas and Cambridge (CAIE) — and also host AAT, Trinity College London and Pearson VUE tests.

A capability most centres lack
On-site science practical endorsements
For private science candidates, the practical endorsement is usually the single biggest obstacle: many centres simply cannot offer it. We can. Our on-site science laboratory at Whitechapel is equipped for GCSE and A-Level Biology, Chemistry and Physics practicals, carried out under qualified supervision in line with awarding-body requirements.
