Our practice quiz covers all four 11 plus subjects: maths (10 questions), verbal reasoning (8 questions), non-verbal reasoning including spatial reasoning (7 questions), and English (5 questions). This matches the subjects tested by both GL assessment and CEM exam boards in real 11 plus exam papers.
The practice test is 15 minutes, matching the time constraints of real 11 plus exam papers. The timer counts down, with reminders at 2 minutes and 30 seconds remaining. If time runs out, any unanswered questions are flagged and you still receive a full report. Timed practice is crucial to prepare children for the real exam day experience.
GL Assessment and CEM are the two main 11 plus exam boards. GL assessment (Granada Learning) typically produces separate papers for each subject (maths, English, verbal reasoning, non-verbal reasoning). CEM (Centre for Evaluation and Monitoring) usually combines subjects into multi-topic papers. Both use multiple-choice answer sheets. Our practice paper covers question types from both GL and CEM formats.
A Standard Age Score (SAS) uses age-standardised scoring to compare a child's performance to others of the same age. In the real 11 plus exam, scores are typically scaled between 69 and 141, with 100 being the average for a child's age group. Our report includes an estimated SAS to help you understand where your child currently stands. Regular practice and subject-specific assessment will help improve this score over time.
Early practice is key. We recommend starting 11 plus preparation 12–18 months before the exam. Use our free practice test regularly to help children build familiarity with question types. Combine our online tests with past papers, maths practice papers and verbal reasoning practice papers. Read our complete preparation guide for detailed advice on helping your child succeed.
Yes. Our 11 plus practice papers are suitable for preparation for both grammar school entrance exams and independent school tests. The question types covered, maths, verbal reasoning, non-verbal reasoning and English, are used by schools that use GL assessment and CEM formats for their entrance exams. Some independent schools also use their own formats, but our practice materials provide excellent preparation for the 11 plus subjects common to all.

The 11 plus exam is designed for children aged 10–11 (typically in Year 5 or Year 6) and is used as a grammar school entrance exam for entry into selective secondary schools at age 11. Early practice, ideally starting in Year 4, gives children more time to develop familiarity with the exam format, question types and timed papers. Our free practice test is designed to be accessible and child-friendly.
Some 11 plus examinations use adaptive assessment, where the difficulty of questions changes based on a child's answers. This allows the exam to more accurately identify ability across the full range of pupils. Our practice test uses a fixed-format approach similar to traditional full-length practice papers, but exposure to a variety of difficulty levels through regular practice is the best way to prepare for adaptive assessments.
Our free 11 plus practice papers are available 24/7. Use 11 plus practice tests as often as you like to help children build confidence and track progress ahead of the real exam.
