Practise for the Entrance Assessment

Real exam-style questions, timed mock papers and instant feedback — all in one app your child will actually want to use.

What's inside

Built to match the real assessment

Every feature is designed around how the SEAG assessment works and how children actually learn.

🔢

Maths practice

Number, calculation, fractions, measures, shape and data — with worked solutions for every question.

📖

English practice

Comprehension, vocabulary, spelling, punctuation and grammar, in the style of the real papers.

⏱️

Timed mock tests

Full-length papers under exam conditions, so test day feels calm and familiar.

🏅

Streaks & rewards

Points, streaks and goals keep motivation high and turn revision into a habit.

📊

Progress dashboard

Topic-by-topic insight shows exactly where to focus next.

👨‍👩‍👧

Parent view

Follow your child's progress and keep preparation on track — without the guesswork.

🤝

Want someone else to help?

A tutor, grandparent or second parent can follow your child's progress too — you approve each person, they see results only, and you can remove access at any time.

A simple routine

Practise a little, often

Short daily sessions build knowledge and confidence far better than last-minute cramming. Here's the routine we recommend:

  • 1 Warm up with a few topic questions your child finds tricky.
  • 2 Review the worked explanations together for any misses.
  • 3 Once a week, sit a timed mock paper to build stamina.
  • 4 Check the dashboard to pick next week's focus.

Everything included

What you actually get

Every plan includes all of it — the only difference between plans is how long the access lasts.

📚 Practice

  • Build your own quiz — pick the subject, topic and difficulty, from 5 to 30 questions
  • A new timed mock test every week — SEAG-style, 56 questions in 60 minutes
  • Multiple-choice and type-in answer questions
  • Comprehension passages with linked question sets
  • A worked explanation on every question, not just the right letter
  • Bookmark a question to come back to it
  • Tell us if a question looks wrong — we read every report

📈 Progress

  • Drill down from subject to topic to sub-topic — over 100 sub-topics tracked, so "English is weak" becomes "apostrophes are weak"
  • Weak areas surfaced automatically, so you know where to go next
  • Compare against previous weeks — the trend shows this week against the last, with filters for subject, topic, sub-topic and time period
  • Weekly and daily activity, and how it is trending
  • Full question history — every past quiz reviewable question by question
  • Review any topic split into right, wrong and bookmarked
  • A printable two-page progress report to save as a PDF — see a sample

🎨 Make it theirs

  • Choose a theme — light or dark, and set the background, accent and subject colours
  • Pick an avatar, unlocked with points earned from practice
  • Points and daily streaks
  • Badges for milestones and consistency
  • An optional leaderboard showing only your child's own percentile band — never another child's name or score

👪 For parents

  • A Parent Area behind your own PIN
  • Assign specific practice for your child to complete, and see when they do
  • Set weekly and overall targets per topic
  • Let a tutor, grandparent or second parent follow along — you approve them, and can remove access at any time
  • An optional daily reminder email, at an hour you choose
  • Request your data or close your account from inside the app

15-day free trial, no card details needed. Every plan is a single payment — nothing renews.

FAQs

Using TransferNI

I'm not sure how to read the progress dashboard — what should I do?

You don't have to. The dashboard is there when you want the detail, but you can skip it completely: tap “Pick for me” and we build the quiz around whatever needs the most work. Nothing to interpret, nothing to decide — and it costs you no more thought on a busy evening than handing over the tablet. More detail: reading your child's progress.

Does “Pick for me” only serve up my child's weakest topics?

No — it adapts to where your child actually is. Early on, when there isn't enough history to read anything into, it simply spreads questions across the subject rather than guessing. Topics they have never tried come first, because a blank is not a weakness. Once there is enough practice behind them it does lean towards what needs work, but stronger topics still come up and anything already mastered drops out. The aim is a session that stretches without discouraging: enough that feels familiar to keep the small wins coming, enough that is shaky to make it worth doing. More detail: how suggested practice works.

Will my child be told which topics they are weak at?

No, and that is deliberate. A child told a topic is their weakness tends to avoid it. The quiz simply leans towards the skills that need practice and leaves out anything they have already mastered, so to your child it looks like an ordinary quiz. The topic-by-topic breakdown stays in the progress dashboard, for when you want it. More detail: what your child sees.

A question looks wrong to me — can I flag it?

Yes, and please do. On the results screen after a quiz, tap the question and tell us what is wrong with it: the answer marked correct looks wrong, a typo, a problem with an image, or wording that allows more than one defensible answer. The report arrives with the question attached, so we can check it against the original without you having to describe which one you meant. More detail: help for parents.

How do I get help from a real person?

Open the Inbox in the app and write to us. It goes straight to the TransferNI admin and replies come back to the same place, so the whole exchange stays in one thread. It is the fastest route for anything to do with your account — a payment that has not appeared, arranging access for a tutor, or something you would rather ask privately. More detail: help for parents.

Can a tutor, grandparent or aunt help my child — and does it cost extra?

Yes, and no. A supervisor account is free: it never carries a subscription of its own. Ask us through the Inbox to enable one once they have registered an ordinary account. They then send you a request, and nothing at all happens until you approve it in the Parent Area — nobody gains access to your child by asking us. They see practice results and where to focus, never your payment details or your messages, and you can withdraw access at any time without giving a reason. More detail: sharing access with a tutor or family member.

What happens when my pass runs out?

Nothing renews on its own — every plan is a single payment, and the 15-day trial asks for no card details at all, so there is no subscription to cancel. When a pass ends, starting new practice and the quiz history list pause until you buy another. Nothing is deleted: the progress dashboard still works, and a quiz already underway can still be finished. More detail: your subscription and promo codes.

I am worried about a child's safety — what should I do?

If a child is in immediate danger, contact the police on 999. TransferNI is a practice tool, not a reporting service, and we cannot act on a concern about a child's safety. Our safeguarding page sets out who to contact — the PSNI, and the NSPCC helpline on 0808 800 5000 — and separately explains how to tell us if something in the app itself is wrong.
