It's free to start, and no card is needed.

How do the reports work?
Every paper is marked straight away with answers explained. Your reports build up as your child practises: strengths and gaps by subject and topic, an estimated standardised score shown as a range, and, once you choose a target school, whether your child looks on track. In the 8 weeks before the test, an exam-month plan sets out each week.
Is there an app?
