11+ Tips
​
Most schools that run an entrance exam into Year 7 (11 Plus), will state that their exam cover National Curriculum KS2 Maths content.
​
Yes that may be true, but always remember that the 11 Plus exams are sat at the start of Year 6. At this point they are assessing your child with "end of Year 6" content, So basically, you need your child to be one year ahead with their content knowledge.
​
Not only do they need to be one year ahead, they need to have mastered the content too, to the point they can recall facts and problem solve at a very fast pace.
​
More often we are seeing an expectation of some knowledge of Year 7 content. Most schools will teach this to the more able in Year 6 anyway, but be aware that topics such as algebra, powers and indices, solving algebraic equations and expanding brackets may be in your child's test also.
