Entrance Exam Consultations

Elite Tutors Sussex

Entering your child for independent or grammar school needs careful consideration and planning.

Our consultations offer key information and a strategic process on how you can best support and prepare your child for entrance exams at 7+ or 11+.

Understanding the process

The competitive nature of entrance exams can feel highly pressurised, and you will want to know exactly what is required and how to help your child to get the best possible outcome. Our consultations will walk you through the process at 7+ and 11+ and how best to prepare your child on your own or with the help of a private entrance exams tutor.

Is your child ready?

Jules Newman, Brighton

Elite Tutors Sussex conducted a phonological screening assessment for our daughter (age 7) at our home and the follow up report and feedback has been helpful in identifying specific learning challenges and signposting how we might go about addressing these. I cannot recommend these services highly enough, in particular to parents like us who find themselves concerned that their child may have specific learning challenges.

We have had Lynne tutor us in Biology IGCSE, she has been absolutely superb. She knows the specification inside and out and uses different methods to keep us engaged. Nothing is too much trouble, she went over and above. She also knows lots of interesting stuff around the topic, I learnt so much, She would be great to have on your team in a quiz!
