Private 11 Plus Tuition in Failsworth

Starting 11+ preparation at age 9 allows a steady, pressure-free approach rather than last-minute cramming.

• Year 3 (age 7-8): Focus on building confidence and core English and Maths skills without exam pressure.
• Year 4 (age 8-9): Introduce exam content, verbal reasoning, and non-verbal reasoning systematically.
• Year 5 (age 9-10): Intensive practice focusing on exam technique, speed, and accuracy under timed conditions.

A gradual two-year approach often produces better results than intensive short-term cramming.

Private 11+ tutoring in Failsworth generally runs at about £10/h per session.

Prices vary depending on several factors:

• The tutor's experience and qualifications (teaching credentials, 11+ specialism, proven results)
• How selective the schools you are aiming for
• How lessons are conducted (individual tuition, group classes, face-to-face, or via video call)
• How often and how long each session lasts

Many tutors offer package deals or sibling discounts, which can reduce the hourly rate over time.

Children sitting the 11 Plus are tested on English, Maths, and two types of reasoning skills.

• English: Reading comprehension, grammar, punctuation, spelling, and sometimes creative writing.
• Mathematics: Arithmetic, fractions, percentages, ratios, algebra basics, geometry, and word problems.
• Verbal Reasoning: Word puzzles, synonyms, antonyms, analogies, codes, and logic problems using language.
• Non-Verbal Reasoning: Measures problem-solving ability independent of language skills.

Understanding the specific test format helps focus preparation on the right question types.
