The Braintree journal
Long-form pieces on exam strategy, study technique and the parts of preparation that do not fit on a flyer. Articles here are written by our faculty and edited carefully — no listicles, no hot takes.
The journal covers selective entry and scholarship preparation for Australian families: NSW Selective and Opportunity Class, HAST, ASET, EduTest and ACER scholarship formats. You will find explainers on each test section, honest notes on pacing under timed conditions, and parent-facing guides on building a weekly routine without overloading a primary-school child.
Use article categories when you want topic groupings such as exam prep or study tips. Exam topic tags collect related posts across categories — useful when you are researching one skill, such as abstract reasoning or writing structure. Every post names its author; the authors index links to each teacher's archive.
We publish when a guide is ready, not on a fixed calendar. Featured articles on the first page highlight recent work from the faculty; older posts stay available through pagination so nothing disappears behind a paywall or login.
