11 Plus English Core Skills
11 Plus Foundation Course
11 Plus Summer Intensive Course
Year 4 should be the least stressful part of the 11 Plus journey, in fact the student should only be spending 120 minutes maximum every week of doing work. Gradually the time spent on revision should increase, however it shouldn’t be labelled as a ‘chore’, make the transition as smooth as possible.
In English it is important to keep on revisiting terms: grammar, punctuation, etc… It’s very easy to get quickly out of tune with SPaG. To have good creative writing skills, being able to tackle comprehension questions, verbal reasoning and more, you need to have the ‘English core skills’
Before advancing to formal English tests, it’s vital that the pupil has the knowledge and skills of basic English for the 11 Plus. English core skills is aimed to cover these topics so that the pupil can feel confident to move onto assessments. Note that this is ‘stage one’ of the foundation, so in the next stages the pupils will be introduced to ‘short’ and ‘long’ English tests. They will be prepared for this as they have gathered the skills from this book
11 Plus Year 4 Foundation Course
It can be confusing knowing which 11 plus resources to start with when you are starting your prep early. This is why, after many of my tutees in year 4 never had work that was the perfect level for them, I created this set of resources. This comprehensive plan is well-rounded, structured and covers all topics to build a strong foundation in time for the real exams.
Focusing on individual skills, mental maths, vocabulary building and spelling, your student will feel much more confident after completing this course.
In-person courses can obviously be a hefty price and so this plan covers all that would be taught in-person at a much more affordable price.
