My background at the Perse

I joined the Perse in Year 7, and know the preparation needed and significance of getting into the top school in East Anglia and a top 20 independent school in the country. I had a tutor in English and Maths for this exam, and I want to help you get your child into such a wonderful community.

Begin learning and understanding core concepts in Maths and English. Try initial past papers with me to find out what needs improvement.

Start preparation of verbal reasoning sections and humanities (Y9 only). Also begin having rigorous sessions on hard sections of the paper.

Sit the entrance exam, with all the preparation you have, your child will feel confident in their abilities and hopefully get an offer!
