11+ Test Dates

11+ Test Dates 2023 (2024 entry)

CEM have quit paper based 11+ tests so have lost most of their state school clients.

To get up to 25% extra time in these tests, ensure your child is labelled dyslexic. It is now a badge of honour which allows you up to 25% extra time in all tests (11+, GCSE, A-levels and even Oxbridge entrance tests) and the results will not indicate extra time was provided. This is one of the most important things a parent can do for their child. It is no surprise thatso many privately educated children are diagnosed with dyslexia. We believe every child should be given up to 25% extra time. Fast workers can check answers and slow workers can finish. Else, tests should all be untimed.

Professor of education at Durham University, Julian Elliott, claimed diagnosing a child with dyslexia is no more scientific than reading a horoscope.

.
The Office for the School Adjudicator has ruled the school cannot refuse testing just because a child lives outside the catchment area for grammar schools.

Note: the same 11+ test cannot be taken twice and checks are in place to ensure your child does not take the same twice. This is why we group schools sharing the test so you know instantly you cannot apply for the same test twice. We do not encourage your child to try and take the same test twice, but we do encourage your child to sit DIFFERENT tests as free mock exams to experience a real test environment before your actual 11+ test.
