Exam technique is not as critical for this exam as it used to be for the CEM Exam. The papers are quite long and so if your child spends too long on a question, your daughter will normally have some time to catch up. Exam technique is not as crucial, but it can still make a big difference. Observing your daughter during a practice paper can highlight some areas where they are not getting the scores that they are capable of.
Our progress tests are either included in the week's worksheets or can be found in the online drive in a folder called Progress. You can find how to access the drive on salisburyelevenplus.com/drive. If you haven't done so already, you will need to request access to this drive using the instructions on the page.
The target is what you would hope to achieve if you are on track to pass the 11+. If you are getting about the mean, then your likelihood of passing is very good.
Foundation Course Tests
We strongly recommend downloading these tests, printing them off and completing them with a pencil (as you would in the exam) and then submitting them below.
The tests are short and so may not give a perfect reflection of your child's ability. They are just an indication. Children also often make a pig's ear of them, so don't worry too much if they are a disaster ...
