Free writing assessment

See exactly where your child's writing stands

We provide an exam-style scholarship writing mock. Your child sits it, we mark it against the real criteria and return detailed feedback and a mark — so you know their level and their weak spots before the exam.

Before the exam — build real experience through competitions

Academic competitions are a low-pressure way to build the reasoning, problem-solving and exam temperament that scholarship exams reward — and to discover what your child enjoys. Pick your child's year level to see where to start.
