11+ weekly preparation classes for children preparing for the 11+ exams running all year round. Children are free to join us at any time throughout the year, with spaces available for children Year 3 and above.
Our 11+ Preparation Programme provides knowledge and instruction in all topics and areas including maths, creative writing, comprehension, creative comprehension, non verbal reasoning, verbal reasoning, puzzles and logic, exam practice and interview experience. We specialise in preparing children for entrance exams to top private and grammar schools in London and surrounding counties, with a proven track record of success. Over 800 children over the past 12 years have secured places at prestigious schools such as St. Paul’s, Wetherby, Godolphin and Latymer, City of London, Putney High, King’s College School, Wallington, Tiffins, Henrietta Barnett, and many more.
Bear in mind, many children will not be able to achieve the high results required for admission (depending on how soon preparation begins, the natural abilities of the child, and the increasing levels of competition) and so we carry out ongoing assessment in order to let you know as soon as possible how likely it is for your child to pass and under which circumstances success will be most likely. We operate a strict policy whereby we only continue tuition for children who are suitable in terms of ability, potential and personality. We provide feedback on these issues and will be in a position to comment on this after 4-8 weeks of instruction (depending on the level and age of child).
We offer online classes and face to face classes in a school.

Who is the 11 Plus preparation class for?
Currently, the 11 Plus Preparation Programmes is available for students in year 3 to year 6. Children are placed in groups according to their year group and ability.
Our Year 3 course lays the foundation for students so that they are efficient at key problem solving techniques required for all four subjects (maths, English, verbal reasoning & non-verbal reasoning). Year 3 children will also be introduced to technique, timing and mock exam practice. Advanced vocabulary work and creative writing are also taught during the larger group sessions to encourage discussion and to enable children to learn from each other. This enables children to develop their writing skills to a high level within a supportive and fun environment.
We recommend children start from the latest Year 4, so as to ensure children have the time to attain the skills necessary for this kind of assessment. This course introduces harder topics whilst working on mastering the key core skills in maths and english. Children learn how to approach a variety of questions and are given plenty of opportunity to practise the techniques required for all four subjects (maths, English, verbal reasoning & non-verbal reasoning).
This 11 Plus Preparation Course prepares Year 5 pupils for their 11 Plus entrance examinations into grammar and private schools. Tuition follows the 11 Plus syllabus and covers the full range of topics. At this level, there is a larger emphasis on practice and proficiency, as well as interview techniques, as this is an essential aspect of the test for those children sitting 11+ exams for private schools.
Finally, for Year 6, children are taught how to gain maximum marks with efficient exam techniques. Practice papers, group interviews and exam questions centred around numeracy, literacy and reasoning will also be elaborated in the 4 months.
We have classes running all year. Children are welcome to join us at any time of the year as our classes are designed to cover the entire syllabus, irrespective of the start term. Ideally however, children should be enrolled as early as possible in order to get the maximum benefit from the classes. This is important because many schools now require a pre-exam before the main November/December exam, giving students three months less to prepare. An early start ensures that your child will get adequate practice before these exams, removing the panic of last minute preparations and cramming. Despite this, we have also seen significant improvement with children who attend just a week/few weeks before the exam. There are also the intensive courses in Easter, Summer, October half term and Christmas available to those who find this option most suitable.
We have personally helped students gain acceptance into schools such as:
Our success in 9+, 10+ and 11+ preparation over the past few years can be found below:
Our 11+ preparation classes are held either online or in school (face to face) in our Victoria location. Both options are controlled by our highly experienced course managers, with instruction given by competent teachers, who follow our programmes closely, ensuring the best service possible.
AT SCHOOL (face to face)
Our weekly Saturday classes in Victoria are very popular and have been running successfully for over 8 years. Classes are limited in size with a 7:1 student-to-tutor ratio with classes being delivered by experienced tutors.
Location: Westminster City School, 55 Palace Street, SW1E 5HJ
Time: Every Saturday 10.30am – 1.00pm
Price: £380 per month for both subjects OR £225 per month for one subject
ONLINE:
Students take live online classes with a tutor in small groups of 2-5 students. This ensures a dynamic environment for children to learn and also allows for each child to receive enough attention.
We make use of an online interactive whiteboard alongside online video calling via Google Meet. This tried and tested method is very easy to use – thanks to our years of experience working with students internationally, we now have a track record of effective online tuition with children from ages 8 to 18 in many subjects. The only pre-requisite for the student is that they are at Key Stage 2 level and thus mature enough to engage online comfortably.
Our two hourly designated lessons are fairly flexible and can be held at any time throughout the week. We work with parents to ensure an appropriate time is scheduled for all of our students.
Price: £336 per month for both subjects OR £180 per month for one subject

“My children started attending since July last year and I cannot recommend enough. Within three months Jane prepared my daughter for St Pauls, Francis Holland and Henrietta Barnet Schools. I have taken both group face to face and individual classes.”

“I have known 11 plus London since 2019 (pre- pandemic). Jane and her team helped my son navigate the path to the 11plus exams. They worked on his weaknesse with a lot of patience. The team is very approachable, polite and honest especially Jane. My ds got into QE boys Barnet with a decent score. They have been helping my daughter for her exams in 2025 and are a big help in building her confidence. I would genuinely recommend the lessons”

“I couldn’t be happier with the tutoring service provided by 11 Plus London. From the outset, they demonstrated professionalism and a deep understanding of the 11 Plus curriculum. Their tailored approach to teaching ensured that my child not only grasped challenging concepts but also gained confidence in their abilities. With their guidance, my child excelled in the exams, achieving outstanding results. I highly recommend their services for anyone seeking top-notch 11 Plus preparation. Five stars without hesitation!”

“Excellent Saturday school and tuition. Run by friendly, professional people with many years of experience with the schooling systems (grammars and fee paying private schools). My son attended from age 8 to 10 when he sat the 11+ and passed Kent grammar exams with flying colours. I recommend 11PlusLondon very highly and now use them for my youngest son, who enjoys the classes.”

“When we initially joined, we understood that our daughter needed to academically excel in order to be competitive for the 11+ exams so we joined these classes. From the very first week, my daughter came home intrigued, happy and keen to go back.
The classes are fun, well planned, engaging and buzzing with a can-do ambience.
The first week’s homework was somewhat daunting for me as the parent as I though oh there a lot here to do, how is this going to be possible, but my daughter enjoyed and relished the challenge which was a big surprise.
The journey hasn’t been an easy one as I’m sure any parent will tell you going through the 11+ process but what I can say to you is that these guys make it a whole lot easier, more relaxed and are always on hand to help. Whether that is you’ve got a question regarding the whole process of things or that the child isn’t quite getting the hand of the new work material they have just learnt, this is the place to be…”
