M&A Sell-Side
Education
Realise Training Group / AQA
Sentio Partners advised the management team of Realise Training Group on its sale by Enact, the SME investor managed by Endless LLP, to AQA.
AQA is a not-for-profit independent education charity and the UK’s leading exam board for GCSEs and A-levels.
Since its management buyout from Interserve Group in October 2020, Realise has grown to support more than 18,000 learners across England each year, delivering 22% CAGR and moving from a loss-making position to GBP 4m EBITDA in FY24, with further improvement forecast.
The transaction, led by Dave Irwin (Partner) and John O’Gara (Director), marks another milestone in Sentio’s track record of supporting management teams through complex, high-growth transactions – combining strategic insight with hands-on deal execution.
