Exam Preparation

11+, GCSE & A-Level Exam Preparation, Online

Strategic, focused support designed to build both the knowledge and the temperament required to excel in examinations.

7+, 11+, 13+ & Common Entrance

Navigating the independent school admissions process requires careful planning. We provide specialist tutors who understand the specific requirements of target schools, including ISEB pre-tests, written papers, and consortium exams.

Our approach focuses on core skills in English, Mathematics, Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning. More importantly, we aim to prepare students in a way that manages pressure and builds genuine intellectual curiosity, giving them the best possible opportunity to perform on the day.

Our Entrance Approach

  • Diagnostic assessment to establish baselines
  • Targeted work on weaker subject areas
  • Familiarisation with question formats
  • Time management strategies
  • School selection consultancy

GCSE Tuition

The transition to GCSE involves managing multiple subjects and increased academic rigour. Our specialist subject tutors help students navigate their specifications across all major exam boards (AQA, Edexcel, OCR, CIE).

We focus on cementing core knowledge, deciphering mark schemes, and developing the analytical skills required to access the highest grades, whilst maintaining a healthy balance.

Common Support Areas

  • Mathematics & Further Maths
  • English Language & Literature
  • Triple & Combined Sciences
  • History, Economics & Humanities
  • Modern Foreign Languages

A-Level Tuition

A-levels require a significant leap in independent thought and analytical depth. Our tutors, who study their subjects at leading universities, provide the rigorous intellectual stretch required to excel and secure university offers.

Our tutors attend or have attended Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, UCL and other leading universities.

  • Subject Mastery

    Moving beyond rote learning to foster a deep, synoptic understanding of the syllabus.

  • Exam Technique

    Refining essay structures, data analysis, and the specific requirements of A-level mark schemes.

  • University Prep

    Bridging the gap between A-level study and undergraduate expectations, including Oxbridge and competitive university preparation.

Mock Exams

Familiarity breeds confidence. We arrange formal, timed mock examinations, conducted under realistic conditions via our online platform, so students experience the pressure and pacing of the real thing before it counts.

After each mock, your tutor provides a detailed mark-by-mark breakdown: what went well, where marks were lost, and a clear revision plan to close the gaps before exam day.

Mock exams available for:

  • 11+ and 13+ entrance papers (ISEB, school-specific)
  • GCSE and IGCSE (all major exam boards)
  • A-Level (AQA, Edexcel, OCR, CIE)
  • University admissions tests (TMUA, ESAT, TARA, LNAT, UCAT)

What’s Included

  • Full-length paper under timed conditions
  • Invigilated online or self-administered
  • Mark scheme applied by your tutor
  • Written feedback report with grade prediction
  • Follow-up lesson reviewing key mistakes

Mock Interviews: 11+ & Oxbridge Admissions

Interviews are often the most anxiety-inducing part of the admissions process. We run realistic one-to-one mock interviews that help students practise under pressure, receive honest feedback, and develop the confidence to present their best selves.

11+ & School Entrance Interviews

Many top independent schools use interviews to assess personality, curiosity, and communication alongside academic ability. Our mock interviews cover:

  • Discussing hobbies, interests, and reading
  • Handling unseen texts, images, or problems
  • Body language, eye contact, and presentation
  • Managing nerves and thinking aloud

Oxbridge & Competitive University Interviews

For students applying to Oxford, Cambridge, and other highly selective universities, we provide subject-specific mock interviews conducted by tutors with direct experience of the Oxbridge admissions process. Sessions focus on:

  • Thinking through unseen problems in real time
  • Structuring arguments clearly under pressure
  • Demonstrating intellectual curiosity authentically
  • Responding to follow-up questions and challenges
