Expert 11 Plus Tuition for Your Child's Success
Introduction
At Norris Education, we understand the importance of providing expert tuition for your child's success in the 11 Plus exam. The 11 Plus exam is a selective entrance exam taken by some children in England before they finish their final year in primary school. It is designed to determine a child's suitability for grammar schools or other selective schools. With our expert 11 Plus tuition, we aim to equip your child with the necessary skills and attitudes to excel in the exam and secure a place in their desired school.
Understanding the 11 Plus Exam
The 11 Plus exam is an important milestone in a child's educational journey. It is a test that assesses a child's academic abilities and is often used as a criterion for admission to grammar schools or other selective schools. The exam typically covers four main subjects: maths, English, verbal reasoning, and non-verbal reasoning.
Grammar schools are state-funded schools in the UK that select their students based on academic ability. These schools provide a high-quality education and are known for their rigorous academic programs. The 11 Plus exam is an essential part of the selection process for these schools.
Entrance exams are tests that assess a child's aptitude and skills in specific areas. These exams are commonly used by independent schools to determine a child's suitability for admission. The 11 Plus exam is a type of entrance exam that focuses on assessing a child's academic abilities.
Selective schools are schools that have specific admission criteria and select their students based on academic ability or other factors. These schools often provide a challenging and enriching educational experience.
The syllabus of the 11 Plus exam may vary depending on the examining body or the specific school. However, it generally includes topics that assess a child's knowledge and understanding in maths, English, verbal reasoning, and non-verbal reasoning.
Key Components of the 11 Plus Exam
The 11 Plus exam typically consists of four key components: verbal reasoning, non-verbal reasoning, maths, and English. These components assess a child's critical thinking, problem-solving, and academic skills.
Verbal reasoning tests a child's ability to understand and manipulate words and language. It includes tasks such as identifying word relationships, completing analogies, and solving word puzzles.
Non-verbal reasoning assesses a child's ability to recognise patterns, shapes, and sequences. It includes tasks such as identifying similarities and differences between shapes, completing sequences, and solving visual puzzles.
Maths assesses a child's numerical reasoning, problem-solving, and mathematical skills. It includes tasks such as solving mathematical problems, working with numbers, and understanding mathematical concepts.
English assesses a child's reading comprehension, grammar, and writing skills. It includes tasks such as answering comprehension questions, identifying grammatical errors, and writing essays or creative pieces.
By covering all these key components in our 11 Plus tuition program, we ensure that your child is well-prepared and confident in their abilities to excel in the exam.
The Importance of Early Preparation
Early preparation is crucial for success in the 11 Plus exam. Starting early allows your child to build a strong foundation of knowledge and skills, increasing their chances of achieving a high score.
Research has shown that children who start preparing for the 11 Plus exam early have a higher success rate compared to those who start later. Early preparation gives your child more time to cover the syllabus, practice exam techniques, and develop good study habits.
Primary school is an ideal time to begin 11 Plus preparation as it provides a solid academic foundation. Our foundation course, designed for children in Year 3, focuses on building concrete maths and English skills. For children in Year 4, our course introduces exam content and problem-solving skills that they will face in entrance exams. By the time children reach Year 5, we help them develop advanced knowledge, speed, and accuracy to achieve exam success.
By enrolling your child in our expert 11 Plus tuition program, you are giving them the best chance to excel in the exam and secure a place in their desired school.
