Built by someone who actually tutors the 11+

I'm Kian — I tutor maths, including 11+ preparation, alongside studying Economics at the University of Warwick. I'm from Birmingham, where the 11+ and grammar school admissions are a genuinely big deal for a lot of families, and tutoring is what actually got me building this.

[Add here: how long you've been tutoring, what levels/subjects, and what you've noticed most often working directly with 11+ families — the specific gap or frustration that made you think "I could build something better than what's out there." This is the paragraph that should sound most like you, in your own words, so it's worth writing yourself rather than having it written for you.]

Most 11+ prep online falls into one of two camps: generic question banks with no sense of adaptive difficulty, or expensive one-to-one tuition that not every family can access every week. Skylark 11+ is an attempt at something in between — a platform that actually adjusts to where a child is, tells a parent honestly where the gaps are, and gives them a realistic plan to close them, whether that's a steady year of preparation or a compressed run-up when the exam is close.

It starts with a genuinely free diagnostic — no card required — because I think a parent should be able to see exactly where their child stands before being asked to pay for anything.
