Common questions
Do writing tasks have answers?
Writing prompts include a model opening and clear success criteria rather than a single 'correct' answer, so parents and teachers can give useful feedback.
Are the reading passages original?
Yes. All passages are written by Success Tutoring and checked for age-appropriate vocabulary and sentence length.
