11+ Preparation
I am specialised in supporting your child to gain the skills for their 11+ / SATs assessment in year 5 or 6.
The 11+ exam is a standardised assessment which usually takes place in year 6 (students are aged 10-11 years old, hence the name).
The exam consists of:
-
Math's
-
English
-
Verbal Reasoning
-
Non-Verbal Reasoning
Each subject is broken down into further parts e.g. in math, the exam will consist of ratio and proportions, algebra, number and place value, fractions/decimals and percentages, data handling questions etc.
I have found that most of the exams are carried out on a computer although some schools still use paper version.
Some children take the 11+ to gain entry into another school, or to remain in their current school. I recommend children begin preparing for this exam from year 4, if possible, but a year 5 start is also beneficial.
It's quite normal for children to set the test online nowadays, however I still recommend practicing with writing. I suggest setting up exam condition at home e.g. turn off all devices, set up the chair and table, and set the timer. Practice at least one paper per week.
