Parental Commitment

11 Plus journey is a team effort between the tutors, child and parent.  Historically we have had better results when a parent is actively involved in the 11-plus process.  It has greatly helped the children achieve their potential.  This involvement can be by marking homework, mini mocks and any assessments.  Plus, if a child needs extra support outside of the lessons to reiterate subject knowledge and understanding.

Teaching Process

Teaching will be provided by highly qualified and experienced 11-plus tutors.

Our 11 Plus course consists of online 1:1 Tuition and face-to-face GL 10 week Course.  The time or days of tuition cannot be changed once these have been agreed.

11-Plus Practice reserves the right to change the advertised class teacher at any time.

Online Platform Technology

We use both Skype and Zoom for these lessons.

11 Plus Practice accepts no liability for unforeseen circumstances such as power outages, internet provider failure or technical issues.

1:1 Online Tuition

Pupils are to have all books ready for their lesson.

Pupils will also need a pen and paper to write on and for the whiteboard.

Pupils must have a quiet room for their lessons and that no other internet devices are on during the half-hour session. Headphones have helped some pupils but are not necessary.

Missed Lessons

If a lesson is cancelled by 11 Plus Practice, an extra-help session(s) will be arranged to replace it.

It is not possible to offer a refund or a rearrangement of a lesson missed by a pupil, but work will always be emailed, and guidance given.

Tests should be completed by the child under standard test conditions without assistance from the parents.

Homework

All homework must be marked and gone over with your child, before the next session. It is the parent’s responsibility to ensure that all homework is completed each week.  It is vital that parents help with children learning weekly spellings and words.
