EXAMPLE PLANNERS FOR YEAR 6 SATS & 11+ SUCCESS
11+ Grammar School Entrance Tests
11+ grammar school entrance exams are extremely competitive, with demand far exceeding the number of available places. For example, Heckmondwike Grammar School offers just 210 available places each year, yet an impressive total of 1,489 children sat the entrance test this year alone. This means that only about 1 in every 7 children who apply are ultimately successful in securing a spot.
To improve your child's chance of passing, consistent, focused preparation across English, Maths, and writing is vital, often requiring months of dedicated study, practice papers, and skill-building exercises. Success depends not just on natural ability, but on effort, discipline, and familiarity with the exam format.
Equally important is developing your child's confidence and time management skills. Many students struggle to perform under timed conditions, so practicing with timed mock exams can help them become comfortable working within strict limits. Building their confidence through positive reinforcement and celebrating small achievements can also reduce exam-related anxiety and improve overall performance.
Prepare your child for grammar school success with this comprehensive 11+ weekly planner, designed to guide their progress from September to December. From January onwards, the focus shifts to intensive exam practice and targeted preparation. Contact Little Scholars Tutoring today to enrol your child onto a session, to receive expert advice on the best resources to support their journey or to discuss the 11+ preparation further.
