Missed Year 7 entry? Transfer places open when existing students leave. We provide the modules, video solutions, and support — your child works through them at home and comes in on session days for guidance.
Students currently in Year 7, 8, or 9 at a non-selective school who want to transfer into a selective high school. Transfer places become available when existing students leave, and the test is held annually. Competition is intense — preparation is essential.
This is a home-study program. We assess your child's current level, unlock the modules they need, and they work through them at their own pace. On session days, they can visit the centre for face-to-face help.
We assess your child’s current level across all transfer test components and unlock the modules they need based on their gaps.
Your child works through transfer-test-level problem sets at home, at their own pace. Modules are structured by subject and difficulty level.
Every single question comes with a step-by-step video explanation. If they get it wrong, they watch the solution. If they get it right, they can verify their method.
All work is graded automatically. You receive reports showing progress, weak areas, and scores by topic — so you always know where your child stands.
Completed topics automatically enter the Spaced Review System, resurfacing at optimal intervals so nothing is forgotten before test day.
On scheduled session days, your child can visit the centre to ask questions, get guidance on difficult topics, and receive advice from our teachers. Drop in as needed.
