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 course structured?

The October half-term course is a 5-day course running from 10am – 3.30pm each day. It is managed by our course instructors who possess over 20 years of experience in exam preparation collectively. Class size is limited, with a 7:1 student-to-tutor ratio to ensure focused and effective learning. Coursebooks and materials are provided throughout the course and returned to students at the end, allowing them to revise what was taught in class or practise topics our tutors have identified as sticking points before taking their exams.

A mock exam takes place at the beginning and the end of the course, so we can identify children’s weaknesses and respond accordingly by helping fill in the gaps or extending their knowledge to a greater depth. This will also allow us to group children appropriately throughout the course, enabling every child to be stretched and reach their full potential. After the course, a written report with honest feedback and recommendations is emailed to parents ensuring parents are abreast of the insights we gather during the course.

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.

Here are some example topics of what the October half-term course covers:

 

  • Algebra (maths)
  • FDP and ratios(maths)
  • Word problems and puzzles (maths)
  • Picking vocabulary and its effects (creative writing and verbal reasoning)
  • Writing to gain maximum marks (creative writing)
  • Evidence and explanations (comprehension)
  • Spelling, punctuation and grammar revision (English)
  • Vocabulary (English and verbal-reasoning)
  • Logical deduction skills (Verbal reasoning)
  • Spatial awareness (Non-verbal reasoning and maths)
  • Identifying similarities between shapes and words (verbal and non-verbal reasoning)
  • Mathematical concepts such as symmetry, rotation and reflection (maths and non-verbal reasoning)
  • Interview skills and exam technique

 

Who is it for?

Who is the course for?

The 10 October Half Term Course is designed for Year 5 students preparing for 10+ independent school entrance exams, as well as Year 5 students gearing up for 11+ independent and grammar school exams. Whether your child has been preparing for years or is just starting their journey, this course welcomes all students, regardless of their current stage in the process.

To ensure children receive maximum benefit, children will be grouped according to ability and year group. If your child is in Year 4 and currently preparing for the 10+ exams, we recommend your child enrols in our 9+ Courses.

Testimonials

“Jane and Andrew are very responsible and extremely helpful. Their tutoring is very effective and personalized. We sincerely appreciate their help. My son got offers from top London schools including CLS. Highly recommended!”

SAMUEL DU (verified on Google)

“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)

We are very happy with Jane and Andrew who are both professional and enthusiastic. My DS has passed all paper exams and were invited for interviews by all applied schools including SPB and CLS.

“Great for preparing children for entrance exams. I would highly recommend Jane and her team for finding your child’s strengths and weakness!”

SABENA (Verified on Trustpilot)

“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.”
