Summer 11+ Intensive Courses for Years 4 & 5
My son, Reuben, travelled over from Australia to sit the 11+ this September. He was enrolled on your summer course. Reuben said it was a fantastic course and that he found it very helpful. Reuben passed his 11+ and achieved a mark of 133. Just wanted to share this with you and thank your staff for a very helpful study course.

- In the Summer 11 Plus Intensive Courses for Year 5, we concentrate on exam techniques and skills gaps, to prepare pupils for the imminent test – and include a mock exam. Our Year 4 courses focus on core skills, with small quizzes to monitor progress. Educational games and activities are an integral part of our courses so that children enjoy their lessons and remain engaged throughout.
- Each of our Year 5 Summer 11 Plus Intensive Courses are different, so Year 5 students can attend one, or any number of the courses.

What you can expect for your child on our Summer 11+ Intensive Courses
We develop pupils’ knowledge so they’re equipped to answer a broad range of challenging verbal, mathematical and non-verbal reasoning questions.
Small classes
Our Summer 11 Plus Intensive Courses are limited in size, which means that your child will have valuable one-to-one attention with their fully qualified teacher. Discover the proven benefits of small class sizes.
Mock exam
We set a mock exam at the end of each of our Year 5 Summer 11 Plus Intensive Courses, to make sure your child’s completely comfortable with exam conditions before it really counts. The results of the exam will help us understand if they’ve achieved their individual targets and provide you with feedback and an analysis of their strengths and areas to focus on.
Breaks
To help your child consolidate their memories and continue to absorb new information, we include two 5 minute breaks during each of the summer virtual lessons.
The importance of sleep
As sleep plays an important role in consolidating new memories, we recommend that your child gets as much sleep as possible during the period of their Summer 11 Plus Intensive Course and any key periods of learning. School-age children need between 9 and 12 hours of sleep a night and there are a few simple things you can do to help them get to sleep, such as turning off the TV, tablet or computer at least two hours before bedtime – the light from these can interfere with the production of the hormone melatonin, which affects sleep-wake cycles.
