Selective schools have high standards for academic entry, and preparing for this highly selective process can be stressful for students and parents alike. It involves long hours of extra study and homework. High pressures and less time to do what your child enjoys may strain them and their performance in school.
Luckily, institutions like Stem Academic College are here to help ease that strain for you and your child during their selective school exam preparations.

We are equipped to support your child during their particular exam preparation by having teachers and staff who know the academic standards that can guide your child’s learning. Additionally, they are always ready to explain concepts that may be difficult to understand and put into practice, such as reasoning, reading comprehension, short writing and numerical and mathematical problems. Our selective exam preparation classes for selective schools comprehensively cover these subjects.
