The GL Course

The GL course is a 7-week in-person, group course at Shurdington Community Centre. This is held on Saturday mornings and afternoons from February to May.

The new GL syllabus has increased in content and volume by nearly half compared to the old CEM syllabus. Therefore, we cannot fit the syllabus into the weekly one-to-one tutoring sessions. Please note that this syllabus fits into a two-year programme in areas of the country where the GL has been running for a while.

The Verbal Reasoning and code-type NVR questions are part of the expanded 11 syllabus and will be in the face-to-face GL course. Verbal reasoning consists of question types on codes, numerical reasoning, and verbal skills. Using multiple-choice answers, the children will benefit from our specialist-acquired knowledge of strategic exam technique.

11 Plus Mock Tests

These are open to external students; usually, there are 130+ pupils in a cohort for a mock test date.

3 Mock tests are a compulsory part of the 11 Plus course.

Dates for 2026 are to be advised, and they are bookable from January 2026, costing £60 each.
