Is your child aiming for a private school scholarship? Scholarships provide your child with top private school education at a reduced cost, saving you nearly $7,000 a year.
However, with limited scholarship spots available and intense competition from hundreds of other students, the right preparation is crucial for success.
Our specialised tutoring program equips students with the skills, confidence, and strategies they need to excel in the Victorian Private School Scholarship Test, whether it’s ACER or EduTest.

What is the Victorian Private School Scholarship Test?

The Victorian Private School Scholarship Test is used by many independent and private schools to award scholarships based on academic excellence.
The test is typically conducted through either ACER (Australian Council for Educational Research) or EduTest.
There are differences between each test, but they both assess students in key areas:
-
Reading Comprehension – Evaluates a student’s ability to interpret and analyse complex texts.
-
Mathematics & Problem Solving – Tests numerical reasoning, problem-solving, and application of mathematical concepts.
-
Written Expression – Assesses creativity, structure, and clarity in writing.
-
Abstract Reasoning – Measures the ability to identify patterns and solve logic-based problems.
-
Verbal Reasoning (EduTest) – Assesses vocabulary, logical relationships, and critical thinking skills.
-
Mathematical Reasoning (EduTest) – Focuses on quantitative
problem-solving beyond school-level curriculum.
With only a small percentage of applicants receiving scholarships, thorough preparation is essential to stand out.
