Our Goal: Tutorial Program

The Higher Marks Educational Centre Tutorial Program endeavors to provide students in grades K — 12 with an opportunity to receive tutoring in core subjects such as English, Mathematics and the Sciences; while continuing to attend their regular day school. As Grenada's most respected institute of intervention education, the tutorial was founded in 2001, for the purpose of recovering students who are faltering in their studies and at risk of failing or dropping out of their regular schools. There is no record of rejection of any student tutored by HIGHER MARKS upon application to college or university.
