These are just a handful of questions that come through to Geek School from parents who are desperate to get their child ready for these highly competitive exams.
Children sitting the 11 Plus are up against thousands of children who are vying for one of the handful of places at their grammar school of choice (usually around 120 places). Private schools see hundreds of applicants for the same number of places, so whatever school your child is hoping to get into, the competition is stiff. Many of these children have been working on 11 Plus maths papers for a number of years and are well on their way to scoring highly on the day of the exam(s).
To be successful in the 11 Plus exams, your child needs to pass all papers (English and maths , plus verbal and non-verbal reasoning, if included in their exam) in order to be successful. So failing the 11 Plus maths paper will definitely spell doom.
If you’ve tried everything to help your child achieve the coveted 85-90% mark or higher and can’t see any improvement, don’t panic. There are some fundamental steps you’ll need to take to bridge the gap between their current low scores and where they need to reach for a chance of succeeding in the 11 Plus tests. These are all outlined in the ‘Boost Your Child’s 11-Plus Scores by 20%’ guide. The guide also include a list of maths topics that are covered in the tests, so you can work through them topic by topic, ensuring that your child is well prepared.
Did you know that 50% isn’t a pass mark in the 11 Plus?
The pass mark for 11 Plus exams is based on the average scores, which then act as a benchmark on which all the children are ranked. So, for the purposes of illustration, if out of 1,000 children, the average mark for the 11 Plus maths paper is 80% and your child scores 70%, the 120 places are offered to children who scored 100% (yes, they do exist!), then 99% and so on. With so many children sitting these exams, by the aggregator gets to 70%, the chances of there being a place left for your child are slim.
When the clock is ticking, you’ll want quick and effective methods to see an immediate improvement in your child’s 11 Plus maths performance. The last thing you’ll want to do is spend hours reading a big manual and trying to navigate through the relevant tips – that’s why this short 24-page guide gets straight to the point.
