ABOUT THIS 11 PLUS CLASSES
What is 11 Plus exam preparation? The 11 Plus exam is a selective examination sat by pupils in year 6 for entry into an independent senior school in year 7. Most children sit the 11 Plus exam in January. However, the exam may also take place from November each year. These exams assess whether children have met the expected standard of the senior school.
About this course: This course is a holistic approach to the 11 Plus assessment and focuses both on exam practice and skill development.
Assessment: All children will be assessed during their first session. After the assessment, we will allocate each child in one of the following tiers.
- Exam practice tier
- Teaching class tier
Definition of tiers:
- Exam practice tier: This tier focuses on exam practice, exam techniques and interview (public speaking skills) preparation
- Teaching tier: This tier focuses on teaching children who still need to learn or reinforce their knowledge on all components of the 11 Plus examination
WORKING WITH PARENTS
Termly meetings: We require meeting parents or carers, at least once per term to discuss their children’s progress report.
EXTRA PRACTICE AT HOME
We require children to practice at home. Therefore, we assign weekly work for children to complete at home and return it 48 hours before their weekly class to allow our tutors ample time to mark children’s work and inform our planning for the next session.
