  • Become familiar with Verbal Reasoning, Non Verbal Reasoning and Spatial Reasoning skills at a pace that works.
  • Become seasoned in the West Midlands GL 11+ exam format and question styles through our progress papers and 11 Plus mock exams.
  • Learn to tackle GL style questions with confidence.
  • Minimise stress and build competitive friendships with peers going through the same process.
  • Identify strengths and weaknesses by taking 11 Plus mock examinations in Year 5.
  • Avoid a summer ‘dip’ by participating in an intensive summer course.
  • Less pressure - Students feel less pressure working in a small group environment compared to in a 1:1 lesson and are more likely to show their best.
  • Learn to think independently - the temptation in 1:1 classes is for students to be spoon fed. It is essential for students sitting the 11 plus test to learn to read instructions for themselves and have time process questions and problem solve themselves.

"Some magical tutoring happens in settings of  between two and five students and it can save you a bundle in fees. It won't suit everyone, but it can work well for grammar school exams and other school entrance tests."
