Increasing competition to get into top UK private schools has resulted in a growing number of schools using online pre-tests as an initial assessment. Whether your child is sitting the ISEB, UKiset or CEM, the Eton List Test or the Harrow Test, we have highly experienced teachers available to help.

Many students choose to continue on with their Whetstone Tutors for support with their 13+ Common Entrance exams as well.

Our teachers have been at the forefront of designing, teaching and marking the GCSE and IGCSE courses taught in UK schools. They know the exam boards better than anyone. We offer:

• Subject and exam specialist assistance. Ongoing support throughout year 10 and 11

• GCSE homeschool programmes

• Additional GCSEs for those looking to complete another qualification

• GCSEs for those applying to a UK school for sixth form

Our teachers work at leading UK schools such as Westminster, Winchester, Wycombe Abbey, St Paul’s, Eton, Sevenoaks, Rugby, Tonbridge and Godolphin and Latymer. They are incredibly familiar with the nuances of the exam boards that they specialise in.

We also have several AP specialist teachers based at the American School in London.

Our experienced teachers are well-versed in catering to students with English as an Additional Language (EAL) needs. They possess extensive knowledge and expertise in developing tailored EAL courses, ensuring effective language acquisition and integration.

We provide specialized guidance and support, and specifically designed EAL courses for students who are applying to UK schools, assisting them in meeting the language proficiency requirements and seamlessly transitioning into the British educational system.

With our dedicated team of teachers, we aim to empower EAL students with the linguistic skills and cultural knowledge necessary for academic success and personal growth.

Specialising in Oxbridge and Ivy League School applications, we work closely with admissions tutors from the world’s leading universities.

We have even developed an online Oxbridge interview practice platform used widely by schools across the world - Whetstone Oxbridge.

Even if not applying to Oxbridge, we have Admissions Mentors who will help you to navigate the maze of UCAS applications, personal statements, test and interview preparation.

Through full-time homeschooling, we help children to reach their full potential. The tutoring experience is all about forming a positive relationship with your child and finding out how they learn best, their strengths and their challenges.

Many Whetstone families choose to travel with their children, whether it’s for one term or one school year. Depending on your family’s needs and the number of children to be tutored, there is a wide range of opportunities available.

Our expert tutors work with children and families internationally, developing effective curriculums and organising suitable enrichment activities.
