If you miss out on sitting Mock A or Mock B, you can still do these at later Mock Exam sessions, to better make use of the Summer holidays.
For example, if you book two or even three of the Mock Exam C Saturday sessions, one or more of these could be used for your child to sit a previous set of papers they have missed.
If you feel this would be useful to you, either book the sessions for the dates you want to use, or phone me to discuss your needs (01722 327525).

Some children just can’t face going into their first mock exam. For them there are too many hurdles to overcome and they are overwhelmed by the enormity of it all. Our Nervous Exam has been made so that you can replicate exam conditions at home (6 pages of instructions). You then send us all the papers (questions and answers) for us to process, and we will then email you your report. If you have a basic report, you will have your child’s scores and bar charts to see where they are compared with other children. A full report will give you this plus all the links for videos that you need and details of the other seemingly insignificant “stuff” that can nonetheless make the difference between pass and fail in the real 11+.
It is a huge shame that some bright children fail the 11+ due to nerves. They need a gentle approach. Both schools are very accommodating and within reason will do everything they can to help these children. It is normal for the children to have a little cry before an exam, this is no bad thing it releases a lot of tension. This anxiety is a heathy response to an unfamiliar situation but it can get out of hand and become crippling. Our Nervous Mock is for the children who need an extra little bit of help to get into their stride.
My name is Sarah Beswick.
Since 1997 we have been helping children prepare for the 11+. Part of this is experiencing formal exam conditions.
The 11+ Exam has seen many changes over recent years but one of the constants has been children’s inexperience with the exam process: they spend 10 minutes sharpening their pencil rather than picking up their spare!
These mocks are designed to iron out these problems and help each child to conquer their own individual weaknesses so that they can perform at their very best in the actual 11+.
These guys, Morley, Bede and Rachel are ninjas at setting up and taking down Mock Exams. You never saw anyone move tables like they can.
Their marking, checking and rechecking are pretty good too. Their report binding is poetry in motion.
They will never read this, so I can say this: what they really bring to the table is their interest in the children; every meal time they will obsess over how to get the best out of each child. Until the topic moves on to ice cream.
Here they are after eating ice cream.
