Helping you find the perfect school and navigate the examination process.
The school selection process is stressful and complex. By leveraging our in depth knowledge of the London elite schools market and from our time teaching at that level, we simplify this process for you. From initial consultancy to help you select the ideal school for your child, to providing the perfect tutor to ensure your child maximises their potential when sitting the entrance exams, through to interview coaching to help them ace it on the day.

1 to 1 Tuition
At The Serpentine Education Agency, we offer expert guidance to help families find the right school in London. We begin by assessing your child’s strengths, interests, and learning style, then recommend schools that align with their individual profile. From there, we guide you through every step of the admissions process — from arranging school visits to explaining entrance requirements and assessment formats. Our goal is to make what can feel like an overwhelming journey clear, manageable, and tailored to your family's needs.
Educational Consultancy
We offer specialist tuition for entrance exams at every level — from 7+, 11+ and 13+ to GCSEs and A Levels. Our tailored approach helps students master core subjects, build exam technique, and approach assessments with confidence. Whether your child is preparing for school entrance tests or national exams, we match them with experienced tutors who provide targeted support and measurable progress. Our goal is not just exam success, but long-term academic confidence.

Exceeding Expectations
7+ Entrance Exam Preparation
Serpentine Education helped prepare our son for the KCS Wimbledon entrance exams. Their tutor had already built a strong rapport with him, making sessions enjoyable and productive. In a short time, they covered everything from interviews to maths and creative writing. Our son was well-prepared and secured a place.
8+ Scholarship Success
Serpentine Education quickly identified our son’s weak spots and tailored sessions to address them efficiently. The tutor’s encouragement and subject knowledge helped him earn an academic scholarship to a top independent school. He looked forward to every session and called her his favourite teacher.
​
11+ Admissions Preparation
Serpentine Education guided our daughter through the 11+ process with targeted support and confidence-building strategies. Their expert approach improved her performance across subjects and helped her gain entry to her chosen school. We immediately asked them to support our younger daughter as well.
​
11+ Confidence & Results
Our son’s skills and confidence grew significantly during his year with Serpentine Education. Sessions were engaging and focused, and he ultimately gained entry to his preferred school. Highly recommended.
​
Secondary School Entry Support
Serpentine Education supported our son in preparing for secondary school entry. Lessons were engaging and effective, and he was successful in his application. He now continues tutoring to reinforce areas of difficulty at school.
​
Common Entrance Support
Our son struggled with creative writing and lacked confidence before working with Serpentine Education. Their tailored support not only improved his English and maths but also helped him enjoy learning again. He now writes independently and confidently.
​
SEN & Entrance Preparation
Our son, recently diagnosed with ADHD, needed help with handwriting and creative writing ahead of a school move. Serpentine Education provided structured, engaging 1:1 sessions that kept him focused and motivated. Their insight and support were transformative—he now enjoys learning and calls his tutor the best he's had.
