IGCSE Common Entrance tutors
2 of 2 UK tutors teaching Common Entrance at IGCSE.
Common Entrance is the ISEB-administered exam taken at 11+ or 13+ for entry to senior independent schools, covering English, maths and science as core subjects plus, at 13+, humanities, religious studies, languages and Latin or Greek for scholarship streams. Different senior schools weight CE differently — some treat it as a near-formality after a successful pre-test, others as decisive. Tutoring helps most with the specific paper formats (which differ from GCSE-style assessment), with the breadth of the 13+ syllabus, and with the Latin and humanities papers where school provision varies. Look for tutors with explicit Common Entrance teaching or moderation experience.
IGCSE (International GCSE) is offered by Cambridge International (CIE) and Edexcel International, and is taken by international-school students worldwide and by some UK independent schools that prefer the IGCSE syllabus to GCSE in particular subjects (often maths and the sciences, where IGCSE retains harder content). Universities treat IGCSE and GCSE as equivalent. Tutoring needs are similar to GCSE — exam-paper technique, content consolidation, board-specific past-paper practice — but the spec differences are real, especially in maths and the sciences. Match the tutor to the actual board (CIE vs Edexcel International) and the year of the spec being taught.
