Hi
Im looking for a tutor for my DS who has just started prep 4 and will be sitting the 11+ at the end of prep 5. We are looking for someone in the south manchester area who has experience with the trafford schools, particularly Alty boys.
Ideally face to face 1:1 rather than online.
Any personal ecommendations would be hugely appreciated! Thank you

If you’re talking about Prep 4 and 5, surely your school is going to be focussed on getting DC into the Grammars, otherwise why send them there? The reason that those of us with DC in state schools had tutors at all was because the preps were doing 11+ tuition from year 3 and we wanted to level the playing field.

It is a long time ago for us but the best tutors were like gold dust and booked a few years ahead. And the names were not shared!

There are agencies in Altrincham that do group 11+ preparation. They may also offer some 1:1. But seriously, this is what a Prep School should already be doing.

There’s one called Novel Tuition on The Downs.

Our daughter did the AGSG 11+ (and passed) last September. I will send a DM of who we used.
