A Clear Route Through 11+ Preparation
Successful preparation is about more than completing practice papers. I help children build secure foundations, understand unfamiliar question types and develop a calm, reliable approach to the test.

Strengthen Foundations
Secure the English and maths knowledge the test relies on.
2
Learn Question Types
Understand how verbal, non-verbal, English and maths questions work.
3
Practise Smart Strategies
Use careful reading, process of elimination and efficient working.
4
Build Timing and Accuracy
Apply skills through timed practice and learn when to move on.
5
Prepare With Confidence
Develop checking routines and a calm approach for test day.
What the 11+ Tests Assess

Vocabulary, spelling, grammar, inference and careful reading.
Maths & Problem Solving
Secure arithmetic, reasoning and applying knowledge to unfamiliar problems.
Verbal Reasoning

Choose the Right 11+ Support
When Should Preparation Begin?
Many families begin structured preparation during Year 4 or at the start of Year 5. The best starting point depends on your child’s current foundations, confidence and how comfortably they can practise without feeling pressured.
