The A* Vault by Shamalam is a free Skool community for GCSE and A-Level revision, created in May 2026 and run by a tutor named in its description as Shameer.[1] The group focuses on study method: understanding a topic rather than just reading it, memorising so that material sticks past the test, and using practice papers properly.[1]

About The A* Vault by Shamalam

Members get step-by-step GCSE and A-Level guides, full guides on understanding, memorising and practice papers, productivity lessons and a full course on how to study for exams.[1] Other material covers staying calm under exam pressure, and members can give input on what goes up on the operator's YouTube channel.[1] The group's tagline also lists revision guides, past papers and live Q&A.[1] Shameer says the lessons have been shared with thousands of people through social media and years of tutoring.[1]

The operator's paid business is Gridline Academy, a trading name of SHAMEER AHAMED LTD, which sells a custom one-to-one A-Level Maths system for UK Year 12 and 13 students.[2] Its format is a daily plan, weekly one-to-one accountability and redoing every wrong answer until it is fully correct, with bonus modules on a problem-solving framework and eliminating silly mistakes.[2] Gridline advertises a money-back promise in the words "If results don't land, every penny back."[2] The YouTube channel covers student lifestyle, productivity and working out.[3]
