Is tutoring from Year 3 actually necessary now, or are we losing the plot?

Y3
Original post
Year 3 mumabout 1 month ago

I keep hearing about families starting 11+ tutoring in Year 3. Genuinely — is that the new normal, or is it noise from a vocal minority?

We're at a strong London prep that says they prep in-house from Y5. School heads have told us not to over-tutor. But the conversations at the school gates are something else.

What did you actually do, and would you do the same again?
