11+ CEM Assessment Style - Briefing Notes CEM is reputed to be ‘Tutor Proof’ ! There is no way to actually predict what will be in each paper exactly. One can however do an analysis of published practice papers that ‘guestimate’ the contents and come to some startling conclusions as a result.

11+ Guide to Mathematics : Please enjoy my latest take on some of the key areas in 11+ Mathematics that are a source of much confusion and misunderstanding. The 11+ Mathematics Question is asked and then a solution put forward in as much detail as possible. Notice that the vital skill of being able to utilise the astounding ‘magic of algebra’ is a key feature of this guide. As the years have progressed it is my observation that standards have got higher and higher. All students need at the very least a Year 7 grasp of key concepts within the field of Mathematics. We are entering the territory of Key Stage 3 Mathematics here. Key Stage 2 Mathematics will no longer cut it in terms of securing a place at your chosen Grammar School. Wishing you all the best in your 11+ Journey.
