Preparing for HAST.
Did you miss out on securing a position in the Selective Exam? With the way this year’s exam played out, it’s no surprise that even students who felt confident didn’t always get the result they hoped for. That’s why placing trust in a program and mentor to guide you is so important.
Although the Year 6 Selective Exam is the primary pathway into these schools, students have further opportunities to take selective exams in high school years 8-11, and many successfully transfer into selective schools during their secondary years. It’s important to note that these high school HAST exams go beyond Stage 3 knowledge, covering high school syllabus content, so students should not rely solely on their primary school studies.
At Precision, we help students prepare for the HAST (Higher Ability Selection Test) through programs that build higher-order thinking and a deep, holistic understanding of mathematics. By teaching mathematics strategically and conceptually, covering both critical thinking and essential content - we align with the exam’s focus on academic potential rather than just classroom achievement. This approach equips students with the skills, strategies, and mindset to approach the HAST with confidence and give themselves the best chance to succeed.
Getting into a selective high school gets harder each year because the number of applicants keeps increasing while the number of available spots stays the same. Why wait? Having found Precision, you can take advantage of our expertise now to support your child’s preparation and success.
