2020 SCHOOL ALLOCATIONS

Monday, 2nd March 2020

Every one of my students has been allocated a place in a grammar school today. All but one has his or her first choice of grammar school – the remaining one has his or her second.

TUITION IS live NOW

I am recruiting the following students in the summer holiday 2020:

​

1.  Two brand new courses for a new school year! I welcome both state and independent school students in Year Five and Year Four to join me on an exciting and comprehensive new course in English, which is intended to broaden and deepen students' appreciation of and pleasure in reading and writing.  Most students will be future candidates for full-fee places, assisted places and scholarships in premier-league independent schools. Tuition will take place online in two separate Y4 and Y5 groups, and will begin in September 2020.

​

2. A short course of eight revision tutorials in comprehension and writing skills will take place in September 2020 for students entering Year 6.  Students will be preparing for the premier-league independent schools in Birmingham. Separate boys' and girls' groups reflect the diverse tests for the schools.

​

I regret that as I run only small groups of five students for grammar school preparatory tuition, there are no places for new students who will be entering Years Four and Five in September 2020.  I send my best wishes to all families embarking on an 11+ journey.
