School Entrance Preparation

Finding one's way through the numerous stages, deadlines and exam papers of the various schools in London and across the UK, can be a labyrinthine process. Helicon View Learning has expertise in assisting students and parents with all aspects of the process. 

We work with tutors who have helped students to fulfil their potential and gain access to the top schools in the country.

Tutors will begin by identifying the particular strengths and weaknesses of the student. An academic consultation can be provided by Helicon View at this stage if desired. It can be a great way to put a clear strategy in place. Building confidence whilst carefully addressing the student's weaker areas is the next stage of the process. All the while the tutor will be introducing the necessary exam techniques that will allow the student's talents to shine under exam conditions.

Help and support is available along the way from our office. If you would like to combine tuition with an academic assessment, strategy consultation and/or administrative support, please contact us, or read more about our consultancy services here.

We run regular, highly successful 11+ and pre-test courses in the holidays. See our Courses page or give us a call for details of upcoming events.
