About the CEM 11+ Verbal Reasoning Workbook (Ages 9-10)

The CEM 11+ Verbal Reasoning Workbook (Ages 9-10) gives your Year 5 child focused, exam-style practice that mirrors the CEM test format from the very first page. Published by Scholastic and praised by experienced tutors, it unpacks every verbal reasoning question type—cloze, vocabulary, synonyms, antonyms, spelling and more—so your child meets each challenge with confidence, not confusion.

Vocabulary revision exercise page showing word substitution questions
Inside pages feature vocabulary revision exercises with clear instructions and answer boxes

Each chapter presents bite-sized tasks that build familiarity with the CEM question style, while short answers at the back let your child check progress independently—extended solutions are available online for deeper review. Because the workbook isolates one skill at a time, you avoid overwhelming your child and instead create steady, measurable improvement across spelling, punctuation, grammar and vocabulary. That targeted approach means less frustration at the kitchen table and more genuine understanding before test day arrives.

By working through this workbook, your child will recognise CEM patterns at a glance, answer with accuracy under timed conditions, and approach the 11+ verbal reasoning paper feeling prepared rather than anxious. The clear layout and step-by-step practice align with the demands of selective-school entry, giving you both the certainty that revision time is well spent and your child the tools to perform when it matters most.

This workbook suits families who want a dedicated verbal reasoning resource for Year 5 pupils sitting CEM 11+ exams. It works equally well alongside tutoring or as part of independent home study, and the physical format makes it easy to pencil in answers, review mistakes, and track progress over the months leading up to test day.

  • Covers cloze, vocabulary, synonyms, antonyms, spelling and grammar question types specific to CEM 11+
  • Short answers included at the back of the book, with extended solutions available online
  • Designed for Year 5 pupils (ages 9–10) preparing for selective-school entry tests
  • Published by Scholastic and recommended by experienced 11+ tutors
  • Physical workbook format for pencil practice and easy progress tracking at home

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this suitable for my child?

The CEM 11+ Verbal Reasoning Workbook (Ages 9-10) is perfectly suited for children in Year 5 or Year 6 who are preparing to take the CEM 11+ exams, which are typically sat in the September - October period of Year 6.

This resource is particularly helpful for children sitting CEM-style tests in areas as well as regions where schools use mixed exam boards that include CEM papers.

While specifically designed for children preparing for the CEM 11+ tests, the CEM 11+ Verbal Reasoning Workbook (Ages 9-10) also provides excellent preparation for independent school entrance exams, typically held in the January - February period of Year 6, as many of these exams follow a similar format.
