“Ideally, I would say 11+ preparation is a two year journey. With our elder son, Daniyal, we didn’t have a choice because we’d moved from Singapore, so he started in Year 5, and I know that if Daniyal had started in Year 4 he would have done even better than he did. They are young children - you can’t cram it all in, in one year. The lessons are very structured, and Daniyal did the Summer Lessons in August as well for both English and Maths - that was very, very helpful. The Summer Lessons are intense, they are tailored towards students practising past papers and they are coming two days a week for each subject. Additionally, it’s in August so the timing is really good as well.”

As we enter Week 3 of the Autumn Term, we would like to remind students that this is the first assessment week of the academic year. Students will be sitting a 20-minute assessment in their lessons this week. Reasoning classes will not be given an assessment this week. For these classes, a longer assessment will be given in Week 6.

To offer additional support, parents will have received an email with our Director of Studies Rebecca’s advice on how best to revise for these assessments.

We are delighted to remind parents that this academic year, we continue to offer the full-year booking discount of £100 until the end of the first Half Term, on Sunday, the 20th of October.

So far, 23% parents have booked their child's place in the group lessons for the full academic year and have received the £100 discount (for students attending 36 lessons throughout the year).

Students in Year 11 and Year 13 will be attending a smaller number of lessons throughout the year; therefore, their discount is calculated pro-rata.

If you would like to use the full-year payment discount, please contact our Registrar, Esther, at registrar@trefoiltutors.co.uk.

For the discount to apply, we must receive your full year payment by 5pm on Sunday, the 20th of October.

We are thrilled to share the exciting news that this academic year, we have switched to using the Google Meet platform for allowing students to join our lessons remotely.

This upgrade allows students to join lessons online more efficiently and securely as the connection is provided through a Google Meet link, which does not require any additional software to be installed and can be simply used through any browser. Furthermore, students will only be able to join the call with the tutor’s approval.

As ever, if your son or daughter would like to join their lesson remotely, we ask parents to contact our team and request online access in advance. A 24 hours' notice allows our team to take all necessary steps in order to prepare for the lesson to run smoothly with students attending both in person and online.

We are at your full disposal should you have any questions on using Google Meet or joining lessons remotely.

We are delighted to share with you the positive feedback contributed by the parents of students who have attended our group lessons and found these enjoyable and beneficial to their learning.

“There has been a significant improvement, my son’s subject knowledge has been stretched and he is constantly being encouraged to think deeper into the subjects that he is being taught. Dilan absolutely loves the group settings; they’re big enough where the children can interact with each other, share ideas. Also, they are small enough so that the child can get their individual attention from the Tutor. Dilan absolutely adores his tutors, the tutors at Trefoil are passionate, enthusiastic and highly knowledgeable in their subjects that they teach, and most importantly they make the lessons fun and engaging!”
