11+ tutoring for children in year 4
In Year 4 we work to reinforce the key skills in Maths and English with an introduction to 11+ style questions. Children gain an understanding of the standard expected of them and are encouraged to improve their skills leading up to our 11+ course in Year 5 and the exam itself. This will provide a stronger base to work from and boost their confidence for the 11 plus preparation. The children work in classes of a maximum of five children.

- tables up to 12 x 12
