For diaspora families

The UK school says she’s doing well.You know what excellence really looks like.

You didn't leave Lagos so your child could be quietly average. But the tutors near you charge £80 an hour, and you know they can't match what you had at home. The Forge closes that gap in your child's time zone, in your currency, at a fraction of local rates.

The cost, side by side.

Local tutor near you
£50–£80 /hr

Great, if you can afford three hours a week. Most families can't.

The Forge · 1-on-1
£12 /hr

Fully-qualified teacher. Personalised plan. Monthly reports.

Monthly · 8 classes
£180

Roughly two hours a week. That's a full academic term of consistent growth.

01
Every time zone

Evening classes in BST · after-school EST · early mornings PST. We work around your child's week, not ours.

02
Both curricula, fluently

KS2/3, GCSE, Common Core, with Nigerian rigour underneath. Your child arrives at Sunday School and at Cambridge equally prepared.

03
Cultural fluency

Teachers who understand what you mean when you say ‘we don't settle for average’, and how to say it kindly to a ten-year-old.

In London we were quoted £75 an hour. For that price my son gets a whole month at The Forge, with better teachers.

My daughter finally has a teacher who understands both her SATs prep and her grandmother's expectations. That's rare.
