Registration enables you to set up your profile and enrol your child in one of our courses. You can then easily access all the information related to your child’s enrolment, including invoices and lesson materials for online classes. If needed, you can also cancel an enrolment. If you have more than one child enrolled with us, all their information is easily available using one login.
In addition, we use your profile information as the emergency contact information.
Face-to-face lessons:
Lesson materials will be handed out in class by the teacher. Submissions are done on paper and handed in.
Online lessons:
The EduVision Student Portal Manual (link below) provides information on how to print lesson materials and submit writing homework. Materials are available one day before the class and are available until one week after your last lesson. After that, lesson materials will no longer be accessible.
We use Zoom for our online classes. We suggest that you download the Zoom app before the first lesson. The Zoom link is found on your child's Student Profile when you click on the relevant class. Lesson materials are available on the Student Portal and homework is also submitted and marked there.
Teachers share their lesson using the screenshare function. Students can ask questions by raising their hands or using the chat function. Quick discussions or pop quiz-style questions are conducted using the chat function. The chat function is controlled so that students can only chat with the teacher (host). Students are encouraged to keep their camera on to enable teachers to check if they are engaged and understand the lesson materials.
Term assessments are completed using the EduVision Exam Portal. When it is time for the term assessment, click on "Take Me To The Exam Portal" on the Student Profile page
Term-time courses:
The amount of homework depends on the age of the student and the length of the class. In general, for each 2-hour lesson, your child is expected to do about 1 hour of homework for the week and the homework for a 3-hour lesson is about 1.5 hours per week. There is no homework for week 10.
Holiday courses:
Holiday courses that are more academically focussed will include some daily homework. Extra-curricular courses may not have homework. For full-day holiday courses, no homework is expected.
There are assessments only for 10-week courses held during the term. For most primary courses except for debating and public speaking, an assessment is held in week 9 or 10. For secondary courses, the number and timing of assessments will vary depending on the content.
By week 10, students and parents will receive the results of the assessment. If you wish to talk to the teacher, a short interview can be arranged.

We understand that a student may fall sick or their families may have clashing commitments. Therefore, we allow up to two make-up lessons a term.
We do not provide a refund or credit if a student misses a lesson and is unable to attend a make-up lesson. If students miss a lesson, they will still be able to access their lesson materials. Any writing task, if completed, will be marked.To find a make-up lesson, go to "Courses" on our website. Find the course your child is enrolled in (e.g. Year 3 Maths) and click on “Learn More”. This will provide the dates and times of all the classes, as well as whether the class if online or face-to-face. Once you have decided which make-up class suits your schedule, call us and let us know. It is important that you let us know, so we can inform the teacher as well as ensure that the class is not overbooked.

Year 4 English Extension classes begin in Term 3. Both English and English Extension courses are targeted at students who are looking for enrichment and extension. Most materials for the weekly lessons will be identical but some activities may be differentiated to ensure that students are working at the optimal level. Teachers assigned to both courses are selected for their skill and knowledge, and their ability to motivate and adjust their teaching pace for their students. Our aim is to ensure that we work with students to help them achieve their best.
In mid-term 2, all Year 4 students – currently enrolled – will sit a grading test. Students who are currently enrolled in our Year 4 classes will also have their term performance taken into consideration. The results will determine if they are eligible for the Year 4 English Extension course.
Once the student has been informed of their course eligibility, they can select a day, time and delivery method (face-to-face or online) that suits them.
Year 5 English courses are extremely popular as many students – though not all – who participate in them are preparing for the Selective High Schools Placement Test or private school scholarship tests in early Year 6. As a result, we have introduced a system for allocating students into our Year 5 English and English Extension courses.

Only preparation tests for the Selective Schools High School Placement Test, excluding the Writing component, are currently available in uTest. The papers are created to reflect the difficulty and expectations of the real test. Each question comes with an explanation so that students understand how the correct answer is arrived at, and why the other options are incorrect.
In the Reading section, original texts are written by the EduVision team and are being published for the first time. (Copyright infringements will be investigated.)
Results analysis:
uTests will provide comprehensive data such as
- the results of each exam
- the number of incorrectly answered questions in each test
- the ranking for individual components of the test
- a cumulative ranking.
This will help students objectively identify their target topics and understand their own learning status.
Retry & Review:
uTest offers a Retry & Review function for all components. Students can review the explanations for the questions they answered incorrectly and retry these questions as many times as they wish for 30 days after they have startet the test.
The strategies of each of the three subjects are carefully analysed and repeatedly reviewed by our Eduvision expert team.
Packages:
Only preparation tests for the Selective Schools High School Placement Test, excluding the Writing component, are currently available in uTest. You can choose from three packages, A, B, and C:
- Package A: 1 set i.e. 1 paper each of Reading Comprehension, Mathematical Reasoning and Thinking Skills
- Package B: 5 sets i.e. 5 papers each of Reading Comprehension, Mathematical Reasoning and Thinking Skills
- Package C: 10 sets i.e. 10 papers each of Reading Comprehension, Mathematical Reasoning and Thinking Skills
The questions are not repeated so you can order any combination of the three packages.
