General Questions

Why should I choose Ace the 11+ Exam when there are other providers?

We offer more than other providers with greater value for money. The intensive programme covers tuition, online learning, mentoring, exam skills and accelerated learning techniques all in one place. It creates a positive, fun and inspiring environment where all young people can thrive

The gap in the market exists because there is not a level playing field when it comes to admissions of children from ethnic minority and disadvantaged backgrounds applying for selective schools. We fill in the gaps by giving them the “know how” to approach the exam and nurture a “can do” attitude for the confidence to succeed.

Who are the team behind the ACE the 11+ Exam and what is their expertise in this area?

The team is headed by an award winning author and educationalist, Morufu Bello who has published a book in this area, Ace Maths Exam, and holds multiple educational degrees. He has carefully selected all the tutors on their track record in enabling students to excel at 11+, combined with their substantial experience and qualifications. Unlike other tuition centres who use University graduates, we only use qualified teachers.

How can I be sure my child will benefit from the Ace the 11+ Exam programme?

The programme has been developed purely because of the wisdom and expertise of the founder and the team in combining their expertise and track record to create a truly unique and high impact 11+ programme. It covers tuition, mentoring, exam skills and accelerated learning techniques all in one place.

We recognise one size doesn’t fit all. Each student is assessed from the beginning with the results informing their own individual learning journey.  However, from our considerable experience we know students struggle in common areas so the programme has been designed to help them overcome these. We also provide individual student feedback at the end of each session so you know exactly how prepared they are to sit the exam and what they might need to work on.

What makes Ace the 11+ Exam value for money?

The programme is so much more than buying a block of tuition sessions. It’s about creating a fun, interactive atmosphere where students and learn and strive. By combining tuition in Maths and English with exam skills, study skills and mentoring your child is getting an added boost which will remove their nervousness in approaching the exam and reduce the risk of all the investment you have put in, not paying off. The true value of sending your child to the best schools is impossible to measure in terms of their career and life prospects, so by doing everything you can to prepare them for that, you are making a sound move.

What am I getting for my money?

You are getting a lot more than other providers. You will receive 14 hours of tuition in a ratio of 1:4; unlimited access to specialised 11+ and KS2 English and Maths online resources for the duration of the programme;  individualised learning journey; exam preparation in exam conditions combined with feedback on performance at every session; expert mentoring; access to positive role models and peers. A lot of parents ask us if there is anything more that they can be doing to support their child to do well in their exam. The answer is yes! If you take up the Early Bird offer you will also receive a free copy of ACE Maths Exam which will help you to support your child with their exam so they are in the best possible frame of mind to succeed.

How do I access the free resources?

Once you have enrolled and your child attends their first class (on 3rd September), they will receive log in details to our secure online portal of resources. There they will find worksheets and video tutorials as well as past questions to help them.

I’m worried that introducing my child to different methods now might confuse them. What do you say about that?

Our sole purpose is to help your child to excel at the 11+ exam, not to confuse them. As our staff are all qualified teachers they are familiar with the overwhelming majority of techniques. However, the first thing we do with students is run an assessment to find out how they solve questions. We record this on their learning journey and then work with them on their preferred method. In situations where there could be more effective ways for your child to approach problems, our skilled staff will use their expert judgment on how best to do this.

What if I want my child to focus on one specific subject area e.g. Maths or English?

We run a diagnostic test to identify your child’s strengths and areas for development. We then plan their individualised learning journey accordingly. If we need to focus on a specific area to fill in the gaps, we will do so.

What is I want extra support outside the programme?

We can happily arrange for extra one to one support for your child outside the programme within the comfort of your own home. They will be able to build on the rapport they have developed with their tutor which will boost their confidence even more. Please contact admin@train2succeedacademyuk.com to do arrange this.

How do I make payment?

You can make payments online through our website www.train2succeedacademyuk.com. It is safe and easy to use. You can choose the package that best suits your needs and choose whether to pay in full in advance or partially and pay the balance upon completion.

What if I want to cancel before the programme starts?

If you cancel before midnight on 28th August you will receive 75% of your deposit. Any cancellation after that time will result in forfeit of any sums paid.
