Mathematical thinking
Develop number fluency, problem solving and the ability to explain reasoning.
Communication & interview
Practise listening, answering naturally and speaking with confidence.
Learning habits
Strengthen concentration, resilience and independent task completion.
Target-school readiness
Review individual school formats and adjust practice appropriately.

Frequently asked questions
What does the 7+ assessment involve?
Requirements vary by school. Many selective schools assess English, mathematics and aspects of communication or interview. Always check the individual school’s current admissions information.
When should my child begin preparing?
There is no single timetable for every child. Early reading, numeracy and communication habits matter most; a suitable preparation plan depends on the child’s starting point and target school.
Is 7+ preparation only about practice papers?
No. Kew Learning’s approach emphasises reading, written expression, mathematical thinking and natural responses, alongside appropriate exam familiarisation.
How can parents support learning at home?
Read together regularly, discuss stories, encourage independent writing and use everyday situations to explore number sense without unnecessary pressure.
Are course dates and prices available?
Please contact Kew Learning for the latest confirmed timetable, class location, availability and fees.
