I want to teach my daughter about Algebra
Algebra and Equations , Balancing Equations
Rearranging Equations , Worked Examples
Order of Operations - BODMAS / BIDMAS

Can anyone recommend any books or website where all 11+ algebra is covered.
Thanks in advance.

I would think it depends on which exams you are sitting. It may not be Algebra heavy but a few questions, problem solving type, may be easier and time saving with algebra methods.

Does Trafford all have the same exam these days? It used to be the same and GL assessment was the provider and the Pass and Practice series were useful. But things may have changed. Try the Trafford section maybe?

Peter Robson's book 3 is good for algebra. We have whole set and I highly recommend it.

Seriously, there is no need to cover this for 11+.

Most needed for Essex and also in the yr 6 2014 curriculum. Not sure about your area.
