JK Educate becomes Dukes Tutoring: three years after joining Dukes Education

Leading education consultancy and tutoring provider JK Educate is excited to announce that it will now be operating as Dukes Tutoring. This new name reflects the organisation’s close alignment with Dukes Education, the prestigious education group it joined in 2022, while reaffirming its commitment to delivering exceptional tutoring and guidance to clients in the UK and around the globe.

Founded in 2010, JK Educate was created to provide expert advice and high-quality tutoring for families navigating an increasingly complex education system. Over the years, the consultancy has built a strong reputation for excellence, helping students excel across the curriculum, whether that be school entrance exams, GCSEs, or A-levels. The JK team prides itself on matching students with inspirational tutors and mentors, understanding that a child’s motivation to study is inextricably linked with academic performance.

Now, as Dukes Tutoring, this commitment to empowering young people through education will only grow. As the tuition arm of Dukes Education, Dukes Tutoring benefits from the expertise of an international education group whose schools span nine countries and are attended by over 21,000 students. It is also part of the Dukes Plus family of businesses which includes InvestIN, Active Education Group, Oxbridge Applications and The Medic Portal.

Tania Virdie, Head of JK Educate, and an experienced senior leader within the organisation, continues to head up Dukes Tutoring, ensuring the same high standards of excellence and personalised support that families have come to expect.

“Our new name, Dukes Tutoring, better reflects our position within the Dukes Education family, but our mission remains the same,” said Tania Virdie. “We will continue to provide families with the expert guidance, outstanding tutoring and personalised support they rely on to help their children thrive academically and reach their full potential.”

The transition to Dukes Tutoring ensures that families will continue to benefit from the same team of highly experienced tutors, the same tailored approach, and the same dedication to student success that JK Educate has always been known for. For families seeking expert educational support, Dukes Tutoring remains a trusted partner, offering bespoke tutoring, school admissions guidance, and academic mentoring to help students achieve top results and secure places at prestigious schools and universities.
