How we work, and what it costs
The assessment is free and genuinely useful. The report is the product. Human advice is optional and secondary.

Private Pathway Report
A private research dossier on the UK schools that fit this child, with the reasoning, the reservations and the plan.
Prepared privately for your family. Not a subscription, and never shared with schools.
What the report contains
- Six to eight named best-fit schools, each assessed across the five Pathway Fit dimensions
- Strengths and trade-offs for every recommendation, including what we would watch
- Explained Pathway Fit rather than a single mysterious score
- Boarding suitability and international-family considerations
- Realistic total-cost planning with the extras families are surprised by
- Travel, airport and guardianship logistics
- A dated application timeline to your intended entry year
- Personalised questions to ask each school, ready to send
- Source type, reference and date checked against every material claim
- A ‘What we would challenge' section on your own stated priorities

Private Education Advisory — from £1,500
For families who would value additional professional judgement, we can match you with an experienced education adviser. Advisory services are delivered through an independent adviser network and may not be provided by the founder personally.
Private Education Advisory and placement support may be offered later through vetted partners, from £1,500. Where a partner relationship involves a referral commission we will disclose it before you engage, and it will never influence a recommendation.
Partner service: UK School Pathways may receive a referral commission if you purchase support. Partner relationships do not affect your school-match results.
More on the two routes on the adviser support page.
What we never do
- · Accept payment from a school for inclusion or ranking
- · Guarantee admission, or imply influence over a school's decision
- · Publish invented reviews, testimonials or sentiment counts
- · Provide legal or immigration advice
Private Pathway Report commissioning is not open in this prototype; nothing is charged.
