Four live sessions plus daily app practice. Consistent, structured preparation across every component of the Selective test.
Students complete their trial test at home during the week. Every Saturday session is then a structured review of that test, customised to each class's actual results. The review is never generic.
Every session opens with a class-wide breakdown of accuracy by section, the hardest questions ranked, and the most common mistake types, so students instantly know what matters most.
The tutor walks through the top 5 hardest questions in full, covering why each is difficult, the hidden pattern, and the fastest solving method, followed by a parallel question to lock in the skill.
Students identify their personal mistake patterns across English, Maths, and Thinking Skills, then learn a single rule to prevent each one, gradually cutting out avoidable errors week by week.
Each session ends with one ultra-hard stretch question, reviewed as a class, so your child experiences what elite-level performance actually feels like under time pressure.
Every Scholarly homework pack is split into two clear layers, keeping homework realistic for busy families while still stretching stronger students.
How students should use it: do Core first, as these are the most important questions. If time allows, do Extension for trickier styles and deeper thinking.
