About Common Entrance tuition in South London

Common Entrance tutoring prepares students aged 11–13 for the entrance examinations used by independent and private secondary schools in the UK. The CE exams are set by ISEB (Independent Schools Examinations Board) and cover English, Maths, Science, History, Geography, French and other subjects at CE 11+ or CE 13+ level.

Common Entrance is a different beast from state school tests — it uses its own syllabus, specific question formats and is often used by highly selective schools where the pass mark can be 65–75%. Without a tutor who knows the CE syllabus specifically, students often prepare for the wrong content.

South London boroughs including Lambeth, Southwark and Bromley have a growing pool of private tutors serving local families.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a Common Entrance tutor in South London cost?

Private Common Entrance tutors in South London typically charge between £25 and £70 per hour, depending on their experience, qualifications and the level of study. GCSE tutors tend to sit in the £30–£50 range, while A-Level specialists often charge £40–£65. On TutorLab, tutors set their own rates and you can see them before you make contact — no surprises.

Should I choose an online or in-person Common Entrance tutor in South London?

Both work well. In-person tutoring in South London suits younger children who benefit from face-to-face engagement, while online sessions are often more convenient and give access to a wider pool of specialists. Many families start online and never look back — the technology for shared whiteboards and screen sharing has made online Common Entrance tutoring just as effective as sitting at a table together.

How often should my child see a Common Entrance tutor?

Once a week is the most common arrangement and works well for steady, ongoing progress. Some families increase to twice a week in the final months before exams. For occasional boosts around mock seasons, even two or three sessions can make a meaningful difference. The right frequency depends on how far behind your child is and how quickly they need to catch up.

How do I find a good Common Entrance tutor in South London?

The most reliable approach is a platform where tutors have verified profiles — you can read their background, see their subjects and levels, and contact them directly.

Most tutors are happy to do a short introductory call before committing to regular sessions.
