Holiday Intensive Courses.
Our four day week courses are designed to focus on the more challenging exam topics that appear in the competitive entry exams. We expect the pupils to already have a sound understanding of the 11+ syllabus.
Our lessons will be in person at St Michael’s School in Highgate which has wonderful playground facilities for all important brain breaks.
Key topics in English, Maths, Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning will be taught.
The afternoons involve Critical Thinkingexercises; practise in answering Creative Comprehension tasks ( an area which is appearing more frequently in online assessments) and group work activities.
A report is provided at the end of the course giving advice for key areas to improve.
