Selective school preparation: Helping your child succeed in competitive exams

Selective school entrance exams are highly competitive assessments designed to identify academically gifted students. These exams evaluate a child’s reading comprehension, mathematical reasoning, writing skills, and problem-solving abilities, ensuring they are prepared for the rigorous academic environment of selective schools.

With limited spots available, a strong test performance is essential. Our expert online tutoring program ensures your child is well-prepared, confident, and ready to achieve their best possible score.

What is the selective school exam & why is it important?

Selective school entrance exams assess a student’s ability to think critically, solve complex problems, and demonstrate strong literacy and numeracy skills. These tests vary across states in Australia but generally include the following key areas:

  • Reading comprehension:Analysing passages, understanding themes, and answering inference-based questions.
  • Mathematical reasoning:Problem-solving, number patterns, algebra, and geometry.
  • Writing:Structuring persuasive and creative writing responses effectively.
  • General ability (GA):Logical reasoning, spatial awareness, and pattern recognition.

A high score in these areas increases the chances of securing a place in a top selective school, opening doors to advanced learning opportunities and academic excellence.

Common challenges students face with selective school exams

Many students find the selective school entrance exam challenging due to:

  • Time management:Completing difficult sections within strict time limits.
  • Exam pressure:Managing stress and staying focused under timed conditions.
  • Complex question formats:Understanding abstract reasoning and multi-step problem-solving.

What Parents Have To Say...

Read Their Reports And Satisfaction In Their Own Words

    Jaya’s Academy has been a fantastic choice for our child. We were looking for a place that didn’t just focus on results but actually nurtured a love for learning. The teachers are incredibly patient and make complex topics easier to understand. My daughter used to struggle with math, but now she’s not just improving—she actually enjoys it. That alone is worth every dollar we’ve spent.

    What I love most about Jaya’s Academy is that they genuinely care about the kids, not just their grades. Yes, my son’s marks have gone up, but more importantly, his confidence has too. The tutors don’t just teach; they encourage independent thinking and problem-solving, which I think will help him in the long run. Highly recommend for anyone who wants their child to thrive academically and personally.

    We tried other tutoring centers before Jaya’s Academy, and the difference has been night and day. My daughter used to dread English and always second-guessed her answers, but now she approaches assignments with confidence. Her recent school report showed a huge improvement, and more importantly, she’s proud of herself. That’s what makes Jaya’s Academy special.

    As a busy working parent, I really appreciate how flexible and accommodating Jaya’s Academy is. Whether it’s rescheduling a session or getting extra help before an exam, they go the extra mile to support students. The communication is great too—I always know how my son is progressing, and they even provide practical tips for helping at home. Definitely a place that understands real-world parenting challenges!

    I was skeptical at first because my son has a short attention span, and I wasn’t sure if tutoring would help. But the way Jaya’s Academy engages kids is impressive! The lessons are interactive, and they tailor their teaching style to each student. My son actually looks forward to his sessions (which I never thought I’d say about tutoring). His teachers at school have noticed the change too!

    I’ll be honest—at first, I wasn’t sure if tutoring was worth the investment. But after seeing how much my daughter has improved in both her grades and her attitude toward learning, I have zero regrets. Jaya’s Academy has a way of making kids believe in themselves, and that’s something you can’t put a price on. If you’re on the fence, just give it a try—you won’t regret it.
