I had registered for that one, after some kind parent here directed me to that site last month.
But as I tutor/teach my DD, I was looking at more such exams so that she could have more of a professional exposure to it.

Hi just pm'd you but I wouldn't go over board on mocks and exposure. Kent's do a practice the week before the real test for OCC applicants - so that is two opportunities and you can apply to Bexley which makes 3 - that will then give you a good run up to Newstead

My tutor will be holding an assessment day at the end of June where pupils will be tested under exam conditions and given their results confidentially. If interesed, please contact me.

Tonbridge School do a weeks course for £80 during the summer holidays.

Just found out about the Tonbridge Summer School -does anyone know if its any good? Thinking around week 5 would be a good timing in terms of refocusing. Finding my dd has so much school work on at the mo that there is little time for specific practice.

We thought it was quite a good balance. It's just 4 mornings in one week and so they can still have a good holiday! Not too expensive and probably easier than trying to motivate them yourself...

Thanks omg

[omg]
