How can I prepare for 11 Plus at home?

  • Understand the Exam Format: First, familiarize yourself with the specifics of the 11 Plus exam in your area, whether it’s the CSSE, GL Assessment, or another format. Knowing the subjects and types of questions (such as verbal reasoning, non-verbal reasoning, maths, and English) will guide your preparation.
  • Set Up a Study Schedule: Create a consistent study schedule for your child. Regular, focused study sessions are more effective than long, infrequent cramming sessions. Ensure there’s a balance between study time and leisure to keep your child motivated and prevent burnout.
  • Use Practice Papers: Invest in quality 11 Plus practice papers. Working through these will help your child get used to the format and timing of the actual exam. Regularly practising under exam conditions can significantly boost confidence and performance.
  • Focus on Weak Areas: As you work through practice papers and other materials, identify areas where your child struggles. Spend extra time reinforcing these topics. This targeted approach can make a big difference in overall performance.
  • Enhance Core Skills: For subjects like verbal and non-verbal reasoning, developing core skills is crucial. Encourage activities that enhance vocabulary, comprehension, pattern recognition, and logical thinking.
  • Utilise Online Resources: There are many online platforms offering 11 Plus resources, including practice questions, video tutorials, and interactive exercises. These can be a fun and engaging way to learn.
  • Read Regularly: Encourage daily reading. It improves comprehension skills, vocabulary, and general knowledge – all of which are beneficial for the English component of the 11 Plus.
  • Work on Time Management: Teach your child how to manage their time effectively during the exam. Practice papers can be used to simulate exam conditions, helping your child get used to answering questions within the allotted time.
  • Seek Professional Help if Needed: If certain subjects are particularly challenging, consider hiring a tutor for additional support. Tutors can provide personalized guidance and strategies to improve.
  • Review and Revise: Regular review sessions are essential. Go back over practice papers and ensure your child understands their mistakes and learns from them.
  • Stay Calm and Positive: Maintain a positive and encouraging environment at home. The preparation period can be stressful, so it’s important to support your child emotionally through reassurance and encouragement.
  • Mock Exams: If possible, arrange for your child to take mock exams. These can provide valuable experience and help ease exam-day nerves.
  • Stay Informed: Keep up-to-date with any changes to the 11 Plus exam format or dates in your area, and adjust your preparation plan accordingly.

Is the 11 Plus exam hard?

1) Subject Matter: The 11 Plus typically covers subjects like maths, English, verbal reasoning, and non-verbal reasoning. For some children, certain subjects might be more challenging than others.

2) Exam Style and Format: The format of the exam can also contribute to its perceived difficulty. The 11 Plus often includes multiple-choice questions, but the way questions are presented in verbal and non-verbal reasoning can be unfamiliar and thus challenging for some children.

3) Competition: The 11 Plus is often the gateway to selective grammar schools, which have limited places. The competitive nature of the exam can add to the pressure and perceived difficulty.

4) Preparation Level: Children who have been thoroughly prepared, either through school, private tutoring, or home study, may find the exam less challenging than those who have not had as much preparation.

5) Individual Aptitudes: Every child is unique in their academic abilities. Some may find the 11 Plus to be a moderate challenge, while others may find it quite difficult.

6) Time Management: The exam is timed, and managing to complete all questions effectively within the given time can be challenging for many children.
