Frequently Asked Questions

Is this suitable for my child?

The 11+ Activity Book: Verbal Reasoning - Ages 9-10 is perfectly suited for children in Year 5 or Year 6 who are preparing to take the GL Assessment 11+ exams, which are typically sat in the September - October period of Year 6.

This resource is also ideal for children preparing for other 11+ test providers, including FSCE, CSSE, the Sutton Selective Eligibility Test (SET), as well as 11+ exams authored by individual grammar schools themselves.

While specifically designed for children preparing for the GL 11+ tests, the 11+ Activity Book: Verbal Reasoning - Ages 9-10 also provides excellent preparation for independent school entrance exams, typically held in the January - February period of Year 6.
