Based in Altrincham
Specialist, reassuring preparation for the Trafford Consortium grammar schools — in person, from a dedicated office on The Downs in Altrincham.
Local specialists
Novel Tuition is a specialist tuition service dedicated to the 11+ and the new Trafford Consortium FSCE exam. We teach in person from a dedicated office in Altrincham (29 The Downs, WA14 2QD), around a two-minute walk from Altrincham Hospital, with weekly sessions on a set day and time.
Our tuition is led by a tutor with over ten years' experience, with deep familiarity with the Trafford Consortium and what preparation for these schools involves.
Choose fully personalised one-to-one sessions, or a small group of no more than six — close attention either way.
Calm, encouraging lessons that build genuine understanding and exam confidence, the approach the new FSCE is designed to reward.
Practice worksheets and papers created in-house to mirror the FSCE style, with full practice papers worked through together.
Areas we cover
Based in Altrincham, we support families from across Trafford and Greater Manchester — including Altrincham, Hale, Bowdon, Timperley, Sale, Stretford and Urmston. All tuition is delivered in person at our Altrincham office.
Why families choose us
The 11+ can feel daunting for children and parents alike, so we keep it calm, positive and age-appropriate. And while others are catching up on the new FSCE, we have already built a dedicated programme shaped around it — so your child prepares specifically for the new Trafford exam, rather than a generic 11+. To learn more about the exam itself, see our FSCE explained guide.
