11+ Preparation.

Calm, encouraging preparation that builds the skills and confidence young children need for the 11+, without piling on the pressure.

Confidence first, results follow

The 11+ can feel like a lot for a nine or ten year old, so we keep it warm and achievable. Lessons turn comprehension, vocabulary and creative writing into something children actually enjoy, while quietly building the exam technique that makes all the difference on the day.

Everything is tailored to your child and to the schools or exam boards you are aiming for, and we keep you in the loop so you always know how things are going.

What we cover

  • Reading comprehension and reading between the lines
  • Vocabulary, spelling and grammar in context
  • Creative and continuous writing
  • Timed practice and exam technique
  • Confidence, pace and managing the nerves
