Inside this guide
Description
The 11+ test and grammar school application process can feel like the first high-stakes moment in your child’s education. Whether you’ve been preparing for months or are only just finding out about this opportunity, rest assured – this eBook covers everything you need to know!
For starters, we explain what the 11+ exams cover and what your child is actually being tested on, including how formats differ between regions and what variations of question types to expect. Then, there’s a no-nonsense breakdown of what a realistic preparation timeline looks like, along with practical tips for you to best facilitate stress-free and cost-effective prep. We’ve also included some advice for deciding between grammar, independent, and comprehensive schools to determine which will best suit your child’s strengths, personality, and learning style.
We’ve also included parts of the 11+ that are often unspoken: how to prepare a young child for a high-pressure exam without causing anxiety, whether tutoring is actually necessary, and how to handle the possibility of not getting an offer you’d hoped for, all while balancing your child’s learning journey and life outside of school.
This is an honest guide intended to demystify the 11+ and provide realistic, accessible, achievable strategies all centred around your child’s confidence and wellbeing as they rely on you to help them navigate the 11+.
