The course will run both in F2F and online formats.

The Tests (HAST and Edutest) is an aptitude test developed that is used specifically to transfer to selective high school.

Yes! Even high – achieving students stumble at the test. Some students with perfect Year 7-8 grades have missed out on a test due to their lack of skills in certain areas. Research shows training can significantly improve test score by familiarising you with the types of questions that will be asked in the Selective transfer test and developing strategies to tackle them.

Backed by experienced and dedicated tutors, we will provide students with:
– 8 lessons of specialised coaching for HAST/Edutest required in many Selective school Year 8+ entry applications
– 2 sets of Hybrid Mock Test+ Comprehensive Review
– Foundational skills to tackle challenging questions & understanding essential concepts
