LONDON, UK. June 2nd, 2026 – A-Star Tuitions, the STEM-focused education provider founded by Debashis and Arunima Saha, is expanding its services with the launch of a new online learning platform and enhanced parent progress tracking system at the start of the new academic year 2026-27.
The business, which was established in 2018 after the couple identified a growing need for additional support for students studying science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) subjects, says the new services are designed to provide greater flexibility for learners while improving communication with parents.
The expansion comes as A-Star Tuitions continues to gain wider recognition within the education sector. The company has recently been named a finalist in both the Best Home Based Business and Best Online Business categories at the Small Business Awards for the Kent and London region. It has also been confirmed as sponsor of the People’s Choice Award at the 2026 National Tutoring Awards, organised by The Tutors’ Association.
The new digital platform, due to launch in September 2026, will allow students to access structured study materials through an online learning environment, enabling them to study at their own pace alongside the company’s existing live online tuition services.
A-Star Tuitions was founded after the Sahas supported their own child through GCSE studies and recognised the pressures many families face when preparing for examinations.
Since then, the company has worked with hundreds of students from Year 7 through to A-level, providing one-to-one and group tuition designed to build confidence and subject knowledge over the long term.
The founders say one of the key principles behind the business has been helping students develop strong academic foundations early rather than relying on intensive intervention in the months before examinations.
Arunima said the organisation’s approach centres on unlocking potential through structured and consistent support.
“It is a simple motto for us: we want to bring out the best in every child,” he said. “We aim to deliver an exceptional experience for both students and parents through well-planned and focused learning sessions.
“Our approach combines structure, discipline and encouragement. Every student has potential and our role is to unlock that and help them develop the confidence and knowledge needed to achieve their goals.”
The company works with students throughout Key Stage 3, Key Stage 4 and A-Level education, helping learners strengthen their understanding of core STEM subjects while preparing for examinations and further study.
According to the founders, sustained support over several years often produces the strongest outcomes, allowing tutors to track progress carefully and adapt learning strategies to individual needs.
Debashis said families frequently underestimate the benefits of seeking support before students enter their GCSE years.
“One message we consistently share with parents is not to leave it too late,” she said. “Every year we speak to families who wish they had started the process earlier. Building confidence and subject knowledge takes time, and students often achieve the best outcomes when support begins before Year 11.”
The new online classroom system is being developed to support students who may prefer independent learning or require additional flexibility around school, extracurricular activities and family commitments.
Through the platform, students will be able to access lessons and learning resources at times that suit them, progressing through content at their own pace while continuing to benefit from A-Star’s structured teaching approach.
Alongside the learning platform, the company is also introducing a new student progress tracking system for parents. The software will provide detailed updates on engagement, progress and achievement, allowing families to monitor their child’s learning journey more closely.
The company says the new technology is being designed to strengthen communication between tutors and parents while offering greater transparency around academic development and performance.
The recent award recognition and involvement with the National Tutoring Awards reflect what the company describes as a growing commitment to raising standards and supporting excellence across the wider tutoring profession.
As A-Star Tuitions prepares to launch its expanded services, the founders say their focus remains on helping students develop confidence, resilience and a genuine passion for learning.
The new digital offering is expected to be available from September, marking the next phase of growth for the business as it continues to support students across the UK in STEM education.
