Our October Half term Courses are a vital part of of your child’s 11 plus preparation. For children who have just moved into Year 6 this is their last chance to work intensively, with exams such as the ISEB just round the corner. We concentrate on the harder 11+ areas so that children on the courses can differentiate themselves and stand out from their peers. Our course has been written by our Director of Education who was Deputy Head at one of the best Prep schools in the country with years of experience preparing children for the 11 plus. All our teachers are experienced qualified teachers with a track record of successfully preparing children for the 11 plus.
Our 11 Plus Half Term Courses will be running in both our Hampstead and Dulwich venues.
Morning sessions will run from 9am – 12pm and afternoon sessions from 12.30 – 3.30pm. Children booked into the whole day can stay with us over lunch and be supervised safely while having a packed lunch.
If you would like to stay later we run our popular “Games for Interviews” classes in which we play some of the games which come up in the interview stage of the assessment and help children show the right behaviours to do well here.
