Tuition Offered

Our Assessment Program

We know that all children are unique and with mixed abilities and needs. This is why we treat our assessments as the first-step towards understanding a child’s academic performance.

Assessments are a part of our tutoring; as it is here that we begin to build a picture of a child’s progress according to age, peers and curriculum.

The tests we use mainly cover Mathematics and English, reading and spelling and may include Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning.

Does my child need an assessment?
Parents and children benefit from our assessments for many different reasons. Some of the most common reasons for taking an assessment are children who:

• have been away from school due to sickness/ other reasons
• have learning difficulties and wish to overcome them
• are entering exams like the 11+, SAT’s and the GCSE’s and need extensive revision and exam practice
• lack confidence and faith in their own abilities
• or simply want to find out where they are on the curricular scale

The assessment can help give children a better picture of what needs to be done, narrowing down the problem to one or two areas. An assessment can also reveal the reasons why some children find certain exercises hard. It can also help them focus on achievable goals, which is very important, as sometimes not knowing makes the problem appear much bigger than it really is.
