Your Choices for Studying the Life in the UK Test

The material that has to be learnt for the Life in the UK test is determined and provided by the Home Office. It produces a publication called Life in the United Kingdom: A guide for new residents. You are required to learn all of the information found in this publication for your test. The publication has a recommended retail price of £12.99.

The material provided by the Home Office is lengthy and complex. As an alternative, Red Squirrel Publishing provides a wide range of products and services to help you learn for your test. These products and services have been developed and designed by us with one goal in mind: to help you pass your test first time.
