| As parents will be aware,
there are a variety of Grammar and independent schools that
select candidates by examination. Although different schools
have differing formats, their examinations will include some
or all of the following: |
- verbal\non-verbal reasoning
|
- English (Creative writing & comprehension)
|
|
| The Saturday Tuition
School can help you and your child prepare for these 11+ examinations.
We have successfuly helped numerous pupils on successfully entering
their schools of choice. |
| We have a large library
of Entrance & 11 + practice papers (Verbal & non verbal
reasoning). As practice is the key to success to any examination,
we work through these practice papers with the pupils giving
them guidance all the way through. |
| GCSEs |
| GCSE exmainations are
taken at Year 11 but sometimes pupils can take English\Mathematics
at Year 10. |
| Based on teacher's reports
& SATs results, students will be directed to study for either
Foundation, Intermediate or the Higher GCSE examinations. |
| Techniques, preparation,
practice and familiarity in style of question are the ingredients
to achieve sucessful grades.The Saturday Tuition School has
a selection of Pass Papers for the differing Examination Boards.
We can work through these papers with te students showing them
techniques on how to answer questions. |
| SATs
(Standard Assessment Tests) |
| Unlike 11+ or GCSE examinations,
you cannot pass or faill the SATS tests. They are tests that
pupils sit at the end of Key Stage 1,2 & 3 and are used
as a measure of a pupil's progress at school. However, in conjunction
with teacher's reports the results of SATS can determine how
pupils are entered into different streams during their educational
years. |
| By focussing on key
areas, we have successfully helped improve student's SATs results
and subsequently increased their confidence.. |
