11+ Exam Preparation Course
Get ahead with expert guidance, tailored lessons, and real practice material.
The 11+ (Eleven Plus) is a selective entrance exam used by grammar schools and independent schools across the UK to admit pupils into Year 7. Taken in Year 6, around age 10–11, the exam assesses a child’s academic ability and readiness for a more advanced learning environment.
What’s Included in the 11+ Exam?
The exam varies by region and school, but generally includes:
-
English – Comprehension, grammar, vocabulary, and sometimes creative writing
-
Maths – Based on Key Stage 2 curriculum with focus on reasoning and problem-solving
-
Verbal Reasoning – Language and logic-based questions involving patterns, codes, and vocabulary
-
Non-Verbal Reasoning – Visual problem-solving using shapes, patterns, and sequences
📌 Formats differ across regions (GL Assessment, CEM, or school-specific), so it’s important to prepare for the exact test type required by your target schools.
