What's covered?

Tuition is built around the four areas most 11+ papers draw on.

Verbal reasoning

Codes, word relationships, comprehension under timed conditions.

Non-verbal reasoning

Pattern recognition and spatial problem-solving, often the least familiar area for children.

English

Comprehension, creative writing and grammar, matched to the specific exam board format.

Maths

Core arithmetic and problem-solving, with a focus on speed and accuracy under exam pressure.

Why start early?

Most families begin 11+ preparation a year or more ahead of the exam, giving time to build confidence rather than cram technique.

Familiarity, not panic

Regular, low-pressure exposure to the question types beats last-minute intensity.

Real mock conditions

Timed practice papers so exam day itself isn't the first time your child has felt the clock.

Progress you can see

Session notes after each lesson so you know exactly where things stand.
