Rigorous exam preparation for Redbridge, Essex & Kent 11 Plus — 2 hours weekly rising to 4 hours intensive as the exam approaches.
Year 5 is the last full academic year before children sit the 11 Plus. Our programme is built around this reality: rigorous subject coverage in the autumn and spring terms, followed by intensive exam technique and past paper practice as September approaches.
We cover all four 11 Plus subjects — Maths, English, Verbal Reasoning, and Non-Verbal Reasoning — in a structured sequence designed to build confidence and close any remaining gaps before the exam.
All core 11 Plus subjects covered in a structured sequence — building depth in the first half of the year and sharpening exam technique in the second.
