What is the typical format of 11+ Grammar School Preparation | Leading Tuition?

The 11+ format varies depending on the school and region, but most selective schools test verbal reasoning, non-verbal reasoning, mathematics, and English comprehension. Some schools use the GL Assessment or CEM format; others set their own papers. The key differences between formats include question types, timing, and whether calculators are permitted. Understanding the specific format used by your target school is essential before starting structured preparation, as this determines which skills to prioritise and which practice materials to use.

When should my child start preparing for 11+ Grammar School Preparation | Leading Tuition?

Most children benefit from starting structured 11+ preparation in Year 4 or early Year 5, approximately 12 to 18 months before the examination. This allows enough time to cover all question types thoroughly, build stamina for timed papers, and complete multiple full mock exams before the real sitting. Starting too late — in the final term before the exam — rarely allows enough time to address genuine weaknesses in reasoning or mathematical ability. Preparation should be consistent and paced rather than intensive in the final weeks.
