Helping Croydon Students Win Places at Top Schools

Croydon is home to some of the country’s most competitive schools, and many local families also apply for grammar schools in Sutton and Bromley. Our selective school entrance exam (11+) preparation helps children build the reasoning skills, exam technique and confidence they need to succeed. We tailor practice to each school’s assessment format, including GL, CEM and bespoke papers, as well as creative writing and interview preparation where required.

Free Assessment

Every child begins with a free assessment and parent consultation. While your child completes their Maths and English assessment (or Combined Science where appropriate), we'll take the time to learn about their education, discuss any concerns, answer your questions and explain how we can support them. You'll receive honest recommendations tailored to your child's needs, with no obligation to enrol.

Feedback & Plan

After we've reviewed your child's assessment, we'll contact you to discuss your child's results. We'll explain their strengths, identify any gaps in their learning and recommend the most suitable tuition programme, whether that's small-group or one-to-one support, along with clear next steps.

Start Learning

When you're ready to join, we'll book your child's lessons, introduce them to their tutor and create a personalised learning plan. From their very first lesson, they'll begin working on the areas identified during their assessment using structured resources matched to their ability.
