Finding the Right School for Every Child

Choosing a senior school is one of the most important decisions a family will make. At Clarence House, we believe that success is not measured by entry to a particular school, but by ensuring every child moves on to a school where they will thrive academically, socially and personally.

Through expert guidance, individual mentoring and a deep understanding of each child's strengths and aspirations, we support families throughout the entire 11+ journey.

Our pupils consistently secure places at a wide range of highly regarded independent and grammar schools, with many achieving scholarship and award recognition for their academic, sporting, artistic and musical talents.

A Personalised Approach to 11+ Preparation

Unlike larger schools, every child at Clarence House benefits from truly individual support.

From Year 4 onwards, we work closely with families to:

Explore suitable senior school options

Understand differing admissions processes

Identify each child's strengths and potential

Prepare for assessments and interviews

Build confidence and resilience throughout the process

Regular discussions with parents ensure that applications are carefully tailored to the individual child, helping families make informed decisions at every stage.

More Than Exam Preparation

Whilst academic success is important, our aim is to develop confident, curious and well-rounded young people.

Our pupils leave Clarence House with:

Strong foundations in English and Mathematics

Excellent study skills and independent learning habits

Confidence in interviews and assessments

The ability to think critically and solve problems

A genuine love of learning

These qualities support success not only at 11+, but throughout secondary education and beyond.
