Why Parents Choose Small-Group 11 Plus Tuition
Small-group learning gives children the energy of a classroom with more personal attention than a large course. It also gives parents a more affordable, structured route than weekly one-to-one tuition alone.
More Confidence
Children practise aloud, explain methods, hear other approaches and learn that mistakes are part of improvement.
Better Exam Technique
Lessons teach how to spot question types, manage time, remove wrong answers and handle multi-step problems calmly.
Visible Progress
Parents receive clear updates on attendance, effort, topic confidence and recommended next steps after key checkpoints.
Focused Curriculum
The course covers English, maths and reasoning rather than treating the 11 Plus as ordinary schoolwork.
Flexible Timetable
Parents can choose afternoon, late-afternoon or evening slots across selected weekdays and weekend options.
Safe Online Setup
Tutors follow safeguarding expectations, with DBS standards and a professional online learning environment for children.
What Your Child Will Cover
The course is built around the key skill areas children commonly face in 11 Plus and selective school entrance exams.

Planning, sentence variety, paragraphing, description, openings, endings and accurate technical writing.
Maths Fluency
Arithmetic, fractions, decimals, percentages, factors, multiples, algebra and calculation accuracy.
Problem Solving
Two-step and multi-step word problems, logical reasoning, shape, measure, statistics and exam shortcuts.
Verbal Reasoning
Synonyms, antonyms, word codes, sequences, analogies, vocabulary depth and language logic.
Non-Verbal Reasoning
