Keystone is one of the UK’s leading educational consultancies. With offices in London, Singapore and Hong Kong, our consultants support families all over the world with advice relating to UK independent schools and UK universities. Most of this work relates to helping students achieve places at schools and universities, but we advise on the whole gamut of the contemporary educational experience.
We use a variety of sources to guarantee the quality and reliability of our advice: objective published information that we have organised in our own database, as well as more subjective, anecdotal information based on our many years in the sector. We have built up relationships with the most informed and respected members of the educational community, and many of our consultants have been advising families for many decades.

How to Prepare for the ISEB Common Pre-Test
Many independent senior schools have incorporated ‘Pre-Tests’ as an initial entry assessment for Year 7 and 9 entry. Pre-Tests commonly form the first stage of the admissions process, and schools use them to identify the students who are most suitable to proceed to the next stage. Pre-Tests can be administered in written form or on a computer, with the ISEB Common Pre-Test being one of the most common assessments.
How to Prepare for the Ukiset Test
For international students applying to study at UK independent schools, the UKiset (UK Independent Schools’ Entry Test) is a crucial step in the admissions process. Designed for students aged 9 to 18, the test helps schools assess academic potential and English language skills before inviting applicants to sit their own entrance exams. Some schools may even offer places based solely on UKiset results combined with school reports.
