We are seeing increased demand for in-person school entrance tutoring in Chelsea , and are actively recruiting qualified primary teachers to fill these roles. We will provide free training on the school entrance assessments, so previous experience is not needed .
What is school entrance tuition?
School entrance tests are sat by students for entry into selective independent or grammar schools. Common entry points are at Year 3 (7+) and Year 7 (11+). These tests normally comprise English, maths, verbal and non-verbal reasoning.
Why are primary teachers ideal?
Primary teachers are best placed to support with school entrance as they are experienced teaching the core subjects of maths and English to students of the relevant age groups.
For example, a teacher who has taught Year 1 and 2 would be ideally placed to help with the 7+, which is sat in the first term of Year 2. Teachers experienced with Year 5 and 6 would easily make the transition to tutoring for the 11+, which is sat in the first term of Year 6.
