UK and US Boarding School Admissions Guidance

Applicable for: Academic and Character Development

Class sessions are delivered online or in-person

Top boarding schools offer a learning experience a student cannot find anywhere else. They learn to be independent, build their character in a supportive community and have access to one of the best education available. However, boarding school is not suited for every child, and PrepWorks can help answer that question through an initial assessment. We will then draw up a list of recommended boarding schools based on the student’s personality, preferences and family preferences and work to ensure that the student is ready for every step of the way.

Enrichment Programmes

Applicable for: Character and Skills Development

Class sessions are delivered online or in-person

Key skills PrepWorks want to focus on are not just vital for getting into the best universities, but also to succeed in life. There is a distinct lack of focus on skills such as communication skills, critical thinking and reading in schools. Students end up having trouble when it comes to interviews or presentations, only to develop them later in university through soft skill classes or attending workshops. These skills can actually be established in a child as young as 7, through encouragement and fun activities. PrepWorks hosts enrichment workshops and classes with this in mind during holidays to help build those prepare students for the challenges ahead.

Benefits

Students get to

Pick up new skills that are not taught in the classroom
Build confidence in their own abilities
Develop specific skills through carefully designed courses and classes

A.H., Bromsgrove School, Boarding School Admissions

"Boarding school! An ultimate dream of mine. PrepWorks enabled me to gain the necessary skills and mindset. From entrance exam practice to mock interviews, their guidance teaches you to work on time management, score higher than average and gain important people skills. With the help of PrepWorks, I got into a world leading IB School."

Ashley Tew, Tutoring

"PrepWorks has helped me practice writing when I needed it. I often wrote too much and had problems with being consistent. However, PrepWorks introduced me to Ms Nazya. Ms Nazya guided me through some exercises and tasks which made my writing smoother and more effective. The classes were always fun and educational which I enjoyed. In the end, I am able to write better with the enjoyable learning experience."

Brandon Foo, Tutoring

"When I joined PrepWorks, I was struggling a bit with my Maths, confidence in my speaking and my overall English writing. But when I joined PrepWorks, the teachers helped me perfect my Maths, bringing me to stages up to Year 11 Maths, and helped me improve my English by a lot. They helped me get a lot of offers for English schools in the UK and managed to get me a few offers too. Overall when I joined I was a bit careless in English and not putting my full potential into Maths, but PrepWorks helped me get better."

C.C., Parent of student who took Tutoring

"I have been engaging tutoring services from Prepworks more than a year ago. Their tutors are really very experience and they consistently provide feedback to me on how my kids are doing in class. They also take keen interest on knowing how well the children are doing at school with this extra tutoring. The tutors are also able to accomodate any of the changes in my schedule and this is important. The tutors are able to engage my kids interest in the subject matter as well. I am very pleased and satisfied with Prepworks tutoring service."
