Revision and practice, in addition to that provided by your child’s current school, is not a mandatory requirement for CE or CASE exams. The curriculum has been designed to cover a wide breadth of topics, and your child should learn everything required in their day-to-day schooling.
However, many students find that sustainable and effective preparation can help them manage stress and anxiety during their admissions journey and demonstrate their ability and potential in the best way. In this CE & CASE Admissions Toolkit, we offer several resources to support parents and families preparing children for CE and CASE exams, including the ISEB shop for families, and the CE & CASE Knowledge Base.

One of the best ways for children to prepare for their CE and CASE exams is through the use of past papers and timed mock tests. For many children CE will be their first experience of a timed written paper and is great preparation ahead of GCSEs in the latter half of senior school.
Parents and guardians can order past papers for CE and CASE directly from the ISEB online shop and support their child to complete timed exams helping them to develop time management skills and identify topics that may require additional study.

CE and CASE provide a diverse curriculum that explores a wide range of subjects and topics. Senior schools may require your child to sit an exam in all subjects or only a handful as part of their admissions processes.
ISEB has been working with Dr Kathy Weston and Tooled Up Education to produce the Parent Power Toolkit, four sets of digital resources designed to support parents in helping their child navigate their admissions journey.
Each part of the Parent Power Toolkit contains between 7 to 9 digital resources designed to help parents prepare their families for exams as holistically and effectively as possible. These resources include videos and PDF articles and activities for both parents and children.
Each resource has been developed to be flexible and easy to integrate into busy family life, prioritising a healthy balance between revision and relaxation.
The Parent Power Toolkit is offered in four parts on the ISEB online shop. Activity resources are now available individually so you can select those most valuable to your family’s assessment or admissions journey.
Tooled Up Education is the leading digital platform used by school communities and organisations to disseminate evidence-based resources to parents, carers and those who support and educate children. Their focus is supporting all aspects of parenting, education and family life.
Tooled Up Education was created and founded by Dr Kathy Weston.
Tooled Up is an ideal partner for the exam board of the independent sector and exemplifies ISEB’s commitment to supporting children, parents, and families to navigate their admissions journey in full, not just ahead of the exam.
