Roughly a quarter of sixth-formers in Cambridge apply to Oxbridge, and the December interview window at Trinity, King's, Churchill and St John's is the single sharpest pressure point in UK school life. Hills Road Sixth Form College — repeatedly the country's top-performing state college and an AQA-dominant Oxbridge feeder — sets the local A-Level benchmark in Business Studies, alongside The Perse School (Cambridge Pre-U + A-Level), The Leys School and Long Road Sixth Form College. With OCR's headquarters in Cambridge, OCR Business Studies sits beside AQA, Edexcel and Cambridge International. Our A-Level Business Studies tutors are PhD-level Cambridge alumni and examiners who layer TMUA, ESAT, STEP I/II/III, NSAA, PAT and (where relevant) MAT, BMAT, HAT, MLAT, OLAT, TSA and LNAT preparation against the December interview cycle and June linear papers.
Exam boards we cover
Run alongside Cambridge Pre-U at The Perse School and AQA / Edexcel A-Levels at Hills Road Sixth Form College, Long Road Sixth Form College and The Leys School — the dominant Oxbridge-feeder route in Cambridge. Linear AS + A2 structure with strong international university recognition.
Used by some Cambridge British curriculum schools. Modular structure means students can resit individual units — useful for Cambridge students balancing UCAS and US applications.
Smaller uptake, but offered by some schools serving Cambridge families repatriating to the UK.
Syllabus coverage
Our A-Level Business Studies tutors cover the full specification with extra depth on the topics where Cambridge students most consistently lose marks.
Mission, vision, Ansoff and Porter frameworks.
Segmentation, positioning, branding and digital strategy.
Capacity, lean, quality and supply-chain management.
Workforce planning, motivation theories and leadership.
Investment appraisal, ratio analysis and sources of finance.
PESTLE, economic cycles and global business.
Application, analysis and evaluation for top-band marks.
CIE 9609 pre-released case-study preparation.
We work with students at leading A-Level institutions across Cambridge.
What we fix
How we fix it:Around 25–30% of senior students in Cambridge apply to Oxbridge. We layer Business Studies 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 Studies 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 Studies 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 Studies grades is brutal. Our examiner-level tutors specialise in the AQA and Edexcel papers Hills Road uses and the STEP/TMUA/ESAT overlay.
Why ComboTutors
Our Cambridge Business Studies tutors are matched to the exact route a student is sitting — Cambridge Pre-U at The Perse, 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 Studies 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 Studies tuition with PhD researchers and current examiners starts at £45/hour with the first lesson free.
