Fenella holds a BA (Hons) in History from Royal Holloway, University of London and a PGCE from the University of Cambridge. She spent 18 years at a leading London prep school, where as a senior leader she oversaw 11+ preparation for Year 6 and the academic performance and wellbeing of pupils in Years 5 to 8.
Fenella prepares pupils for entry to London day schools and boarding schools at 11+ and 13+, including pre-tests and 13+ Common Entrance. She teaches Mathematics from Key Stage 2 to Key Stage 3, especially Years 5 to 8, and Verbal Reasoning, and her earlier years as a form teacher for Years 3 to 5 give her a strong grasp of the primary foundations.
Her teaching is calm, structured and responsive, securing understanding of the curriculum before building the precision and exam technique needed for assessments, and helping pupils become more assured, enthusiastic learners.
