About us

Partners in Shaping Exceptional Futures

Harrington Reed is one of the world's leading educational consultancies. For over a decade, we have worked with clients, both from within the UK and from abroad, to support their children’s educational needs and aspirations. Unlike other agencies, we strive to keep the number of families we work to a select few, to ensure our consultants can focus their efforts on one child at a time. 

 

Our consultancy can guide you effortlessly through schools' admissions processes, whether it be for a prep school, a public school, or university. We take away the uncertainty, the headache and confusion that parents often feel in dealing with the dozens of different schools or universities, each with their own exacting admissions process and varying layers of bureaucracy.     

 

 Our results speak for themselves, with clients' children having been admitted to some of the most selective schools and universities in the world. We manage this by offering a tailored approach, created in consultation with both parent and child. We assess what resources are needed, what needs to happen along a precise timeline, to make sure your child has the best chance of success.

Tutoring

We work with a network of elite tutors to deliver tutoring of exceptional quality. All teaching is delivered in the context of an academic plan, overseen by our Director of Studies, and tutors submit lesson plans and reports so that progress can carefully monitored and lessons adjusted as needed to ensure academic goals are met.

Internships and Work Placements

Internships can be transformative for those contemplating their future career. We specialise in finding summer internships that provide a true taste of a profession, and can do so not only for university students but Sixth Formers too.

Homeschool Programmes

We can advise on all aspects of homeschool programmes including choice of curriculums, arranging exam entries, designing suitable timetables including extra-curriculars, and providing tutors with the expertise to make it an academic success.

Admissions Guidance & Support

From choosing the right schools or universities, to navigating the admissions processes and preparing for entrance exams, we provide an all-inclusive service that ensures the best outcomes.
