Although we accommodate short term tutoring needs, where possible we recommend getting in touch around 18 months before you child is due to sit an entrance assessment. This enables our tutors to identify your child’s strengths, weaknesses and learning style and gradually introduce tutoring in a manner that supports both a strong outcome and your child’s well-being.

For our youngest learners, early preparation is key for minimising stress and maximising results. We recommend gradually introducing tutoring in the relevant admissions assessments up to two years in advance of exams, allowing your child to comfortably adapt to additional support. If you happen to be slightly later than this, our tutors have experience preparing students starting at all ages and levels.
