Diagnostic assessment

Every child starts with a structured diagnostic across English, Maths, and reasoning. We identify exactly where the gaps are — not in general terms, but relative to what your target school tests.

A programme built around your school

We map the diagnostic findings against the specific papers, mark schemes, and examiner expectations of your child's target school. Every session has a purpose.

1-to-1 sessions with tutors who know the school

Your child works with tutors who attended or have direct experience of the target school. They know the format, the quirks, and the standard required — not from a book, but from experience.

Progress tracked and reported to parents

Our portal gives parents a live view of scores, tutor notes, and study plan progress. You always know where your child stands and what comes next.

Every child is different. Every school is different. Our job is to bridge that gap with precision.

What parents say

Real results, real families

“Richard provided outstanding support preparing our son for the 11+ entrance exams for The Perse and The Leys. He was highly organised, knowledgeable about the exam requirements, and kept us on track with clear communication and deadline reminders. He built great rapport with our son, made sessions engaging, and boosted his confidence with clear explanations and targeted feedback. We highly recommend him for entrance exam preparation.”

Emma N · Google Review

“We turned to Cambridge Tutors with just four months to prepare for the 11+, and Richard's guidance, reassurance, and resources were invaluable from the start. Emma was an exceptional tutor — organised, flexible, and thoroughly prepared — providing structured, high-quality teaching that built both skill and confidence. She formed a strong rapport with our child and created a positive, supportive learning environment. We highly recommend Cambridge Tutors.”

“My son is usually hard to motivate to study, but I'm incredibly happy that he attends Robert's lessons with joy and genuine interest.”

“Djia was a wonderful tutor for our 11 year old son who only had 4 months to cram in all his revision for the Perse entrance exams! Not only did he teach new maths topics but he tutored in all other aspects of the exams, such as Verbal Reasoning, Non-verbal Reasoning and English. He was always patient and had a lovely approach with my son. He was encouraging at all times and with the help of parents at home too, our son passed the exams so we were thrilled with the results!”

FAQ

What parents usually ask

We want the process to feel clear and manageable, not daunting.

View all FAQs

We can usually begin within 3–7 days. Once you contact us, we arrange a short consultation, match your child with the right tutor, and confirm your first session. The Introduction Package can begin immediately on purchase.

Yes. Every student receives structured homework between lessons, written tutor feedback on each session, and progress updates through our parent portal. You can log in at any time to see the latest scores, comments, and study plan tasks.

For younger students (7+ and 11+), 45–60 minutes is usually the sweet spot. For older students (13+ and 16+), 60–90 minutes can be productive. We discuss the right format during your consultation and adjust as the programme progresses.

Once you send us an enquiry, we ask for a few key details: what your child is preparing for, their current working level, and the target school. We then arrange a short 20-minute consultation and match your child with the right tutor.

Yes — in many cases more effective than adult tutors for this preparation. Our tutors attended the same selective schools your child is targeting. They sat the same entrance papers, went through the same interviews, and understand the process from lived experience.

Once you purchase a package, you receive login access to our secure parent portal. Inside, you can view your child's assessment scores, track progress across all subjects, access resources and mark schemes, read tutor feedback, and follow the 6-week study plan.

The Introduction Package (£75) includes: a school profile report, diagnostic papers in English, Maths, VR and NVR with full mark schemes, a marked writing task, a 20-minute consultation, a personalised 6-week study plan, and a parent guidance pack.

The Perse Package (£349) includes everything in the Introduction Package plus a baseline assessment, mock interview credit, 6 full paper sets per subject across 4 subjects, 3 writing sets with marking, interview prep sheet, extracurriculars guidance, and a score tracking dashboard.
