Particularly under the circumstances you describe, between Ireland and Japan, it has to be Japan -- it's not a matter of debate.
I was going to recommend AoPS (Art of Problem Solving), but I don't think their self-paced classes include 'Introduction to Geometry'.
It's fascinating to witness the level of anxiety among upper middle class parents that stems from the observation that their children may, from time to time, encounter situations that are not absolutely fair in all respects and/ or that are outside their control.
Particularly when one considers that these children have already won the birth lottery.

My kids get that on every STEM class that take. The classes are hard enough but when you throw PhD level questions on top, 96s become 82s very quickly.
PhD level questions? Pull the other one...
Am sorry your kids are underserved.
My kid is at TJ, but they have yet to report any "PhD level questions" on their tests...
