Kitchen Table Question, week one.

The triangle is isosceles. Two of its angles are each 64 degrees. What is the third angle?

The whole thing turns on one rule: the three angles of any triangle add up to 180. Once your child has that, the question is two subtractions and nothing else. Without it there is nowhere to start.

This is a real question from our free half SEAG paper. Thirty minutes at the kitchen table, in the real format, written by NI teachers.

"Can AI really mark a SEAG-style answer fairly?" Fair question.

Short answer: yes, when it's built to show its working, not just hand down a verdict.

A quick guide on how SEAG Success marks every wrong answer. What the model checks, how accurate it is, and where a parent or teacher would still want to take a look.

New this week: a live demo at the top of the article. One question, no login. Fastest way to see what your child would see.

How SEAG Success uses AI to mark free-response written answers. What it does, how accurate it is, and how parents review and override every mark.

Marking a wrong answer "wrong" doesn't teach anything. The Quick Recap is the bit that does.

After every SEAG-style question, your child sees the trap they fell into, the method that gets it right, and a rule they can apply to the next question of that shape.

It's the difference between "I got 6 out of 10" and "I now know what I was doing wrong on those 4."

Most parents we talk to don't have an hour spare for SEAG prep on a school night. They have twenty minutes.

Here's what twenty good minutes look like on SEAG Success.

3 minutes warm up. 10 minutes on one weak topic. 5 minutes reviewing wrong answers (this is where the learning actually sticks). 2 minutes for you to glance at the focus areas screen and see what to look at tomorrow.

A few of those a week, from now to November, is enough.

If your child is moving from P6 into P7 this year, the run-up to the SEAG can feel like a moving target. When to start. What to practise. How not to overdo it.

We put together a month-by-month plan for parents who want a calm, steady route through.

Quiet groundwork in P6. Steady building over the summer. Format practice in September. Exam conditions in October. A calm taper into November.

Full roadmap in the link below.

If your child has a diagnosed need (dyslexia, processing speed, visual impairment, anxiety that affects exams), they may be entitled to extra time or other access arrangements for the SEAG. The 2026 application deadline is 11:59pm on Friday 18 September, and the paperwork can take weeks.

We've put together a parent's guide to SEAG access arrangements: who qualifies, what evidence the school needs, and how the application is made.

Start during P6 if you can.

A guide for Northern Ireland parents on SEAG access arrangements. Extra time, readers, scribes and SEN support for the transfer test, explained plainly.

Why your child got it wrong matters more than whether they got it wrong.

Most SEAG platforms mark the answer and move on. SEAG Success explains why each option is wrong, including the ones your child didn't pick. That's where real learning happens.

Confused about SEAG Bands? You're not alone.
