## FAQ

### Which subjects and year groups do you cover?

Maths, English, and science for primary and secondary students in Years 3 to 11, covering SATs (Year 6), the 11-plus (Year 5 and 6), and GCSE papers (Years 10 and 11). A-level support in maths, sciences, and English is also available for Years 12 and 13 on request.

### How does the free diagnostic call work, and what happens after?

It is a 20-minute call between the founder and you, the parent. No test, no pressure. The founder asks about your child's year group, their school, the exam date, and where they are currently struggling. From that conversation, a first session plan is built. If it feels like the right fit, you book the first session or block and go from there.

### Do you come to us, or do we need to travel?

The founder comes to you. Sessions take place in your home or at Balham Library for families within roughly 1.5 miles of Balham High Road. You do not need to arrange transport or disrupt the evening routine.

### What happens if my child has to miss a session?

Let the founder know via WhatsApp as soon as you can and a replacement slot will be arranged in the same week where possible. The Monthly Consistency Plan and Exam Intensive Block are built around your child's schedule from the start, so clashes are usually caught early.

### How quickly can we expect to see progress before the exam?

That depends on where your child is starting from and how far away the exam is. The diagnostic call is specifically designed to answer this honestly. For a child six months from the 11-plus with identifiable gaps, consistent weekly sessions make a measurable difference. For a GCSE student with mock exams in January, the Exam Intensive Block is structured to close specific grade gaps in four weeks. The founder will tell you plainly at the diagnostic call what is realistic for your child's timeline.
