In Catchment children for CSSE 2018 sitting (2019 start Y7)
Posted: Sat Sep 23, 2017 2:37 pm
Want to make sure local people are aware of opportunities for 11+ familiarisation.
My Son took part in:
http://www.whsb.essex.sch.uk/444/commun ... r-grammar-" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The deadline was the 21st of September but I signed up after that and there were still places available, so give it a try ASAP.
He also went to a couple of familiarisation Saturdays at WHSG but I cannot find the dates for those yet if on offer. He went in February for two consecutive Saturdays.
The schools hold these sessions for girls and boys no matter which gender the school is.
We also used a local tutoring company with max 4 children per class for the past year. They were very reasonable in price and gave one piece of maths and English homework per week. In other words not a hot house!
They also held mock tests which we used.
I also had my son take part in mocks by the tutoring company that sounds like Essex but has a number in the name
Unfortunately one has to sign up for a minimum of three, but I knew from when my DD sat them that they were very rigorous and way harder than the real thing. They are ridiculously priced though!
I have also heard good things about Chalkwell Hall Jr school mocks but my son did not need to sit anymore.
I do not know my sons score yet but he came away from the test smiling and said there were no surprises from his preparation.
Enjoy the journey!
