It’s that time of year again … if your year 5 child is planning to sit entrance exams for Trafford’s and Manchester’s grammar schools in 2014, preparations should be well under way.
You will find lots of help and support on this website and can book tuition or a free assessment by calling Paul Syrett or Christine McLaughlin on 0161 748 3912 or by popping in to our Urmston tuition centre at 1 Crofts Bank Road (entrance is round the corner on Flixton Rd).
Every year we run practice entrance exams. We aim to give your child a good idea of what to expect in the ‘real’ exams and to help them focus on areas of weakness. They are very tough exams, written by our entrance exam experts, and last for three hours. All exams run from 09.30-12.30 and will be held at our tuition centre (M41 0TZ).
Our grammar school practice entrance exams will be running on the following Sundays in 2014:
2nd March (introductory level test)
6th April (£30)
18th May (£35)
