Proven gains, measurable change.
Real lives transformed.
From grade improvements to emotional resilience, Performance Learning delivers outcomes that matter – backed by research, trusted by educators, and experienced by learners.
The Problem We’re Solving
Performance Learning is one of the only platforms in the sector that is both statistically and academically proven to drive rapid, transformational outcomes.
+2.2 average result increase within two academic terms
Effect size of 1.95 — an extraordinary outcome in educational research
Over 500,000 learner assessments completed
More than 300 institutions actively using the platform
6,000+ staff trained across schools, MATs and colleges
Effect size note for dev: consider hover tooltip explaining “Effect size: In education, 0.4 = meaningful, 0.8 = strong, 1.95 = exceptional.”
We’re built on research
Performance Learning is not just inspired by research – we produce it. Our model is grounded in years of academic investigation, including a peer-reviewed study published in Mind, Brain & Education showing a +2.2 result increase in just two academic terms, with an effect size of 1.95 – rarely seen in real-world education.
This breakthrough was driven by the doctoral research of our founder, Dr. Tej Samani, whose PhD focused on improving assessments and examination outcomes by understanding the emotional, behavioural, and cognitive dimensions of learner performance – areas most assessments ignore.
We’ve turned those findings into a scalable, operational solution now transforming outcomes in classrooms, colleges and correctional settings across the UK.

Our Impact
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“Performance Learning adds measurable progress and invaluable life skills for our learners… One learner completed 108 pages of handwritten work within 48 hours.”
Jordan — Philliskirk, Assistant Headteacher, Burton and South Derbyshire College
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“The boys found the online course and live sessions genuinely helpful. Confidence levels increased significantly, as did their ability to handle stress.”
Jonnie Noakes, Director of Teaching & Learning, Eton College
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Sets everything out straight. The Performance Learning Assessment made it easy to see where I need to improve. Incredibly accurate, where to improve is very clear now.

Beyond Results — Lasting Change
We’re not just raising attainment. We’re changing how learners:
Perceive themselves
Respond emotionally to learning
Manage stress, pressure, and setbacks
Prepare for employment and life beyond education (via Thrive+)
