The Irlam Intensive 11 Plus Course, Our Method
Every booking for our 11 plus summer courses in Irlam centres on highly interactive live teaching rather than self-study packs. Inside our intensive 11 plus courses in Irlam, all teaching, techniques, practice questions and corrections happen live during sessions with immediate specialist guidance. We deliberately don't issue separate practice papers or take-home materials, because the dynamic, technique-led live teaching is what produces real improvement in exam performance.

What's Special About Our Intensive 11 Plus Courses in Irlam
🎯
Subject-Specific Focus Days
Each day is dedicated entirely to one 11+ subject — Maths, Non-Verbal Reasoning, English or Verbal Reasoning — so pupils go deep rather than spread themselves thin. One day, one focus, maximum retention.
👥
Small Classes — Real Attention
Our small group sizes mean every student gets genuine, individual attention from our expert tutors throughout the day — not a crowded classroom where questions go unanswered.
📋
Exam Board Aligned — GL, CEM, CSSE & ISEB
Every session is matched to the major 11+ exam formats — GL, CEM, CSSE, ISEB, Future Stories and Independent School Entrance Exams — so pupils revise what will actually appear in their exam.
⏱
Timed Exam Practice Every Session
Timed practice questions and exam-style tasks are central to every session. Students build the speed, accuracy and composure that come from repeatedly working under realistic exam conditions.
📝
Mark-Scheme Coaching & Feedback
Our tutors know exactly what examiners are looking for. Students learn how marks are awarded, practise structuring answers accordingly and receive detailed feedback after practice sessions.
📚
Full 11+ Topic Coverage
Maths, English, Verbal Reasoning and Non-Verbal Reasoning are covered in depth across the four-day booster, with teaching aligned to the question types pupils face in real 11+ papers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Specialists work closely with each student, building confidence step by step through live teaching and immediate practice. Familiar timed challenges, multiple solution methods and a positive mindset focus all help anxious children feel less overwhelmed by the real exam.
Yes, reading comprehension is part of day three, the dedicated English day. Specialists cover comprehension techniques, inference skills and exam-style question formats, with immediate timed practice to build both accuracy and speed under exam conditions.
Children should be working at upper Key Stage 2 standard in English and Maths. The course is designed as a booster and crash course, accelerating preparation rather than teaching foundational skills from scratch.
Yes, and that's the recommended pattern. Children attending three to four weeks of intensive courses combined with regular mocks and consistent tuition have shown excellent progress, so the intensive layers powerfully on top of ongoing tuition.
Specialists adapt within the session if a child struggles, just as they do in person. The online 11 plus intensive summer course Irlam uses the same multiple-method teaching approach, so specialists demonstrate alternative ways to solve a problem and give extra live practice as needed.
