Are you searching for a trusted 11 Plus tutor in Catford, Lewisham, or Hither Green? Geek School Tutoring’s Catford centre has been supporting children across south-east London in preparing for grammar school entrance exams and achieving excellent academic results.

11 Plus Tuition in Catford and Lewisham
Children in the London Borough of Lewisham who are aiming for grammar schools face stiff competition. Selective schools such as Newstead Wood, St Olave’s, and Wilson’s School draw applicants from right across south-east London. Achieving a qualifying score requires solid preparation across all four tested areas: Verbal Reasoning, Non-Verbal Reasoning, English and Maths.
At our Catford centre, we provide structured 11 Plus preparation tailored to each child’s individual needs. We begin with a thorough assessment so that we understand your child’s current attainment and identify the specific areas that need the most focus. Sessions are kept deliberately small so that every child receives individual attention and can progress at the right pace.
A Trusted Tuition Centre in South-East London
Geek School is a member of the Tutors’ Association and is Ofsted-registered, giving you full confidence in the quality and safety of our provision. Our tutors are experienced, passionate about their subjects, and skilled at engaging and motivating children. We believe that the best results come from genuine understanding, not rote memorisation. A child who truly understands the material will outperform one who has simply practised past papers without guidance.
Our students in Lewisham and Catford have gone on to take up places at schools including Newstead Wood School, St Olave’s Grammar School, Wilson’s School, Nonsuch High School for Girls, Townley Grammar School, Chislehurst and Sidcup Grammar School, Trinity School, Eltham College, and Dulwich College.
What We Offer at Our Catford Centre
At our Catford and Lewisham tuition centre, we offer 11 Plus preparation covering all tested areas, GCSE tuition in English and Maths, and primary school support for younger children in Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2. Whether your child needs help building a strong foundation in core subjects or is in the final weeks of 11 Plus preparation, we have a programme that will suit them.
We also offer online tuition for families who prefer the flexibility of learning from home, or for children who live further away. Our live, interactive online sessions are just as effective as in-person lessons and use the same structured approach.
