“Thanks to you, Sue and Cathryn for all your help, it’s been a great course which, as I think you said to me before, helps with general learning and progress whether he passes the test or not. We do feel he has benefitted greatly from the additional tutoring and exam experience whatever happens. I’m sure we will be in touch again in a few years when it’s our daughter’s turn!!”

What’s In The GL 11+ Test?
English and Verbal Reasoning
English includes reading comprehension, sentence completion passages and proofreading for spelling and punctuation errors. Reading comprehension tests a child’s ability to make inferences, understand vocabulary and extract accurate interpretations of the text. Sentence completion tests are passages which contain missing words. Proofreading means carefully checking for errors in a text.
The verbal reasoning section involves the manipulation of vocabulary, codes, sequences and logic techniques and the solving of verbally presented problems. A rich vocabulary is essential alongside an understanding of specific techniques.
Maths
11+ Maths covers a wide variety of maths topics which are generally taught in Key Stage 2. It includes a mixture of longer maths, shorter maths and data processing questions. These will assess your child’s ability in mental arithmetic as well as problem solving within a multiple-choice question format.
Non-Verbal Reasoning
Non-Verbal Reasoning assesses intelligence through the manipulation of shapes using rotation, reflection, symmetry, shape, positions number, size, and shading. It is meant to eliminate cultural bias in testing and possible bias against any child who may have difficulty with verbal elements.
