Introduction
These English Test Papers have been
designed to be suitable for children preparing
for 11+ selection examinations for grammar
and most independent (private) schools. It is
essential that you check with your LEA or
school before setting out on any course of
study and this is particularly the case with
English tests as there is a good deal of
variation between tests set by different
schools across the country.
Working through these tests will provide
your child with a realistic experience of
formal testing. It will also help them to
become more familiar with the range of
question types commonly seen in English
tests. The best preparation for taking tests of
this type is to have spent several years
reading for pleasure. Doing this develops
comprehension skills and an instinctive grasp
of grammar, spelling and punctuation which
will make these tests very straightforward for
your child. The books dont have to be
classics even books (not comics) which
will probably be forgotten in ten years time
will do the job. If you have just purchased
this pack then your child is probably within 6
months of taking the 11+. Its not too late
it will still help if your child spends a lot of
time reading but if there are younger siblings
then the advice is, the sooner the better.
The Tests
These tests are in a mixed format with both
multiple choice and standard format
questions where the child writes down the
answer. For ease of marking, we have
designed them with space on the question
papers for the answers. Each test has 60
questions to be completed in 50 minutes.
Because the tests will usually be marked by a
parent or guardian we have avoided the type
of question which might read Describe in
