What is it?

What is the 5 Day 10+ October Course?

Our 10+ October Course is built to provide your child with the techniques and confidence required to be a successful candidate for your chosen schools’ entrance exams. Over the week, your child will revise and harness their skills in a class environment, filling in any remaining gaps in knowledge and bringing their existing knowledge to a more advanced level.

The course is based upon the most popular topics for the entrance exams: mathematics, creative writing, comprehension, exam technique, interview practice, and reasoning skills – ideal for children preparing for ISEB, Atom, CEM, GL, school-written papers and other entrance exam formats.

 

How is our online course structured?

The 10+ October Half-Term Course runs over five days, from Monday to Friday, 10:00am to 3:30pm. Our experienced course managers oversee the programme, bringing together more than 20 years of collective expertise in entrance exam preparation.

We deliver lessons in small online groups, with a maximum of six pupils per tutor. In practice, most groups contain just two to three children, allowing tutors to give each pupil personalised attention and maintain a focused learning environment. Coursebooks are included in the price and posted to parents before the course begins, so pupils can follow along easily during lessons.

At the end of the course, pupils complete a mock exam. This helps us identify individual strengths and areas for development and ensures teaching is pitched appropriately throughout the week. Following the course, parents receive a detailed written report within 10 working days, containing honest feedback and clear, practical recommendations for next steps.

These intensive courses are perfect for making the most of your child’s October half-term. Despite the intensive tuition, the class environment and lesson structure is built to be fun and engaging. This means that your child will be happy to learn, and more often than not, leave with a smile on their face and some new friends.

Families can choose to book the full week or select individual full days focusing on Maths, English or Reasoning. A detailed daily breakdown of topics covered is provided below.

Testimonials

“We have done a variety of courses and mock tests, leading up to our child’s 11+ exams. All were great help with knowing what areas we needed to work on and also helped our son feel relaxed in his actual exams, and not fretting about his interviews. The feedback reports were really informative and then we could discuss things further with Jane and her team, so we really got great assistance.”

MO (Verified on Trustpilot)

“My child attended the October half term camp. This was probably the most valuable investment I made in my my child’s 11+ journey. The feedback report I received was far superior to any feedback that I received from any other source (including 1:1 tutors from another company) and helped me focus on the right areas to help my child with the 11+ exam.”

FAIZA (Verified on Google)

“From my experience from these classes, is that a good teacher can make all the difference and these guys are it! Its quite rare to find a team as passionate, dedicated and committed as they are. They work alongside you and your chid to make sure they are ready and help give them the best chance of success and I am really thankful for the classes they offer.”

BIBI (Verified on Google)

“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.”

Lika (Verified on Google)

“My daughter was tutored through 11+ plus London on a weekly basis and also through some of their face-to-face courses for preparation for the Tiffin Girls’ School entrance exams. Jane, Harry and the team were excellent throughout the process. My daughter mainly did maths tutoring as her English we did separately; the quality of the maths tuition I found to be excellent. There was good initial assessment together with a plan for improvement within the time available before the exams.

The end result is that my daughter has now been offered a place at Tiffin Girls’ School for year 7 which we are going to accept. Jane and the team were a huge help in making this happen, together, of course, with a huge amount of hard work from my daughter.”
