7+, 8+ and 11+ Exam Preparation Workshops

We have developed a unique methodology for 7+, 8+ and 11+ exam preparation. Our course successfully prepares children for entry to the most selective schools. Our workshops are led by two adults and have a maximum of 6 children per group.

Unlock your child's potential and achieve outstanding results with ease through our revolutionary approach to exam preparation. Our dynamic blend of cutting-edge neuroscientific and personal-coaching techniques, combined with the highest academic standards, guarantees exceptional performance and phenomenal results.

This, together with our expert knowledge of: the 7+, 8+ and 11+ process; the most effective way to prepare children for these entrance exams and the level children need to be at to gain entry to the best schools, gives us an excellent record of helping children gain places at schools such as St. Paul’s, Westminster Under, Sussex House, Godolphin and Latymer, Latymer Upper and many more.

 A common question we are often asked is how long before the exams do children need to start preparing?

We recommend starting to prepare at least a year before the actual 7+, 8+ or 11+ exams. The best pre-prep and prep schools do a good job of covering the curriculum, however, success at these exams requires so much more than that due to the extremely competitive nature of the London Day Schools testing and examination processes. We see the value we add as being the ‘so much more’ and this is what makes all the difference when children are sitting these exams for entry to the best schools.

 We highly recommend taking your child/ren with you when you go to visit potential schools. The reason is that once they see these schools, they then have a clear mental picture of what they are working for, it is no longer abstract and becomes more concrete. This makes the goal far more real and is extremely motivating for children.

Neuroplasticity plays a key role in exam preparation. We have found that by optimising the function of the brain, children are able to maintain their focus for longer periods of time, reduce their error rate and answer challenging questions with increased ease and accuracy.

Tailored Content and Lesson Schedule

Each workshop is different and shaped by the children we are working with. Although our approach and methodology towards the preparation for the 7+, 8+ and 11+ exams remain the same, the academic content of the workshops varies depending on the needs of the children we are working with. 

We prepare work for each group so that they improve in the specific areas that we identify as needing improvement. These areas are identified after conducting a baseline assessment with all children. This is done in a relaxed and fun way, making the process an enjoyable experience for every child.

Our courses for 7+, 8+ and 11+ preparation initially run over 12 consecutive weeks. During this time, we introduce children to our methodology and way of working. After the 12 weeks, we continue working with children either once or twice a week depending on the needs of the group.
