how prep ed works

Prep Ed is designed to help students build deep understanding over time, not just practise questions in isolation. Everything is organised around how students actually learn, plus clarity for parents at every stage.

1. Learn
   Students can start with some easy practice to get used to and learn new concepts.
   Clear, teacher-written mark schemes explain each step and help children learn from their work.
2. Practise
   Students apply what they’ve learned through various worksheets ranging from easy to medium to difficult to scholarship-level.
3. Diagnose
   Students receive analysis by age, difficulty, and skill.
4. Refine
   With reports on their strengths and weaknesses, students can target practice on specific skills.
5. Perform
   Students build confidence, accuracy and speed – ready for their exams.

Designed to feel clear and manageable for students, they can:

• work through questions organised by age
• progress through difficulty levels from Easy to Scholarship
• practise skills in focused clusters (reasoning, literacy, vocabulary, inference, problem-solving)
• complete bonus written work to deepen understanding and retention
• build familiarity with exam-style thinking without pressure or overload

Every task has a purpose.

Parents can:

• see how their child is performing relative to age expectations
• understand which skills are secure and which need work
• track progress over time, not just scores on individual tests
• feel confident about what to focus on next — and why!

Progress in Prep Ed is tracked across three dimensions:

• Age
  How your child is performing compared to others at the same developmental stage through standardised scoring.
• Difficulty
  Whether your child is secure at Easy, Medium, Hard, or Scholarship level.
• Skills
  Which skills “need work”, are “just pass”, “good pass”, “strong pass” or “exceptional”.

This allows progress to be visible, comparable and actionable.

What sets it apart:

• Structured progression
  Content is sequenced intentionally, not randomly.
  Content is reviewed and updated regularly to match the current year’s cohort.
• Depth over volume
  Fewer, better-designed questions – not endless drills.
• Designed by experienced teachers and examiners
  Written by people who understand how high-performing students think.
• Clarity for parents
  You can see exactly what your child is doing and where they stand.
• Support when you need it
  Real teacher support via WhatsApp.

Prep Ed is designed to support long-term academic development, whether your child is doing general practise, preparing for selective schools exams or even their GCSEs.
