The ISEB Common Pre-Tests are an adaptive, computerised set of tests and are usually taken when your child is in Year 6 or Year 7. You can see the list of schools that require your child to sit the Common Pre-Tests on the ISEB website. The tests cover English, Mathematics, Verbal Reasoning and Non-Verbal Reasoning.

As the ISEB Common Pre-Test is an adaptive test, the questions become more or less difficult depending on how the pupil is performing. This means that exam technique and understanding how to effectively manage your time is crucial. Our tutors will support your child in developing their exam technique, content knowledge and confidence to ensure success. 

We have assisted hundreds of pupils into leading day and boarding schools in London and across the UK. Our success lies in working with a small group of highly experienced tutors with access to excellent resources. Any tutor who assists your child with preparation for school entrance will have already been successful in helping another pupil gain a place at a school of the same calibre.
