4 Keys To 11 Plus Success<br />
Tuition<br />
We appreciate that 11+ preparation is critical to support one<br />
of the most significant milestones in our students’ education<br />
journey. Our aims therefore are fourfold to help your child pass<br />
the 11 plus examination.<br />
We encourage children to learn to work effectively and without<br />
distraction and develop good working habits. We work with<br />
our students to identify their strengths and weaknesses then<br />
address their weaknesses and maximise performance in their<br />
areas of strength. We help children to develop their confidence<br />
which significantly improves their capability in a constructive and<br />
positive way. Most importantly, we provide our students with the<br />
tools to work independently, which is a vital lifetime skill.<br />
Pease do contact us if you would like to discuss how we can<br />
help your child pass their 11 plus on: 0785 259 9172<br />

Practise makes perfect<br />
for the 11+ examination<br />
Taking the 11+ examination<br />
is an important milestone in<br />
children’s education journey.<br />
With so many grammar<br />
schools throughout the county<br />
to choose from, it’s important<br />
that those children who are<br />
put forward to take the exam,<br />
are well prepared and have<br />
had plenty of practise working<br />
in an examination environment<br />
- this may be their first<br />
experience of such an exam.<br />
We understand this and are<br />
able to offer the opportunity to<br />
expose your child to authentic<br />
examination conditions but in<br />
a supportive and encouraging<br />
environment. Our examination<br />
papers are regularly updated<br />
to reflect the recent changes<br />
to the 11 plus exams. We send<br />
out the results via email on<br />
the day following each 11 plus<br />
mock exam which identifies<br />
strengths and weaknesses, so<br />
that we can target the areas<br />
which need attention.<br />
