Y4 11+ Week Commencing 8th December 2025 (week 1 of 6)
Good afternoon. I hope you had a restful weekend! Christmas is quickly approaching. If your child has any events coming up which means they cannot attend their usual session, please give us as much notice possible and we will do our best to accommodate in a different session that week. Our sessions are very busy so the more notice given means we area more likely to be able to support the switch that week. Remember classes run Monday to Saturday.

Our Verbal Reasoning GL Focus Sessions offer an intensive three-week programme, carefully designed to boost your child’s confidence and refine their exam strategies. We have raised the level this time to match the standard expected in our mock tests, ensuring your child is fully prepared.
Each week targets a different set of question types—coding, sequences, vocabulary, and analogies—enabling pupils to develop mastery across all areas of the exam. With focused practice and expert guidance, your child will steadily build the skills needed to approach even the most challenging questions with confidence and ease.
