Why the 11+ Exam Matters

The 11+ exam is a pivotal step for students aiming to secure a place at selective grammar or independent schools. It assesses a child's proficiency in core subjects, particularly Maths and English, determining their readiness for a more rigorous academic environment. Success in the 11+ can open doors to schools that offer enhanced educational opportunities, setting a strong foundation for future academic achievements.​

Benefits of Early Preparation

Starting 11+ preparation early allows students to build a solid understanding of essential concepts without the pressure of last-minute cramming. Early preparation helps in:

  • Developing strong foundational skills in Maths and English

  • Enhancing time management and exam techniques.​

  • Reducing anxiety by familiarising students with exam formats.​

  • Identifying and addressing individual learning gaps effectively.​

By beginning the preparation journey sooner, students can approach the exam with confidence and competence.​
