Why this course?
•    Does your child need to achieve a top score in writing for their 11+ exam?
•    Do they have gaps in knowledge or need more confidence to write using a wide range of skills, at length and with high quality?
•    Are you looking for a highly trained, supportive and encouraging primary teacher and a small class size?
•    Do you want a teacher with proven 11|+ results and parent testimonials?

This course has been well-established over many years and is highly regarded by families. The course will develop in your child a flair, confidence and enthusiasm for writing that will not only make them stand out in their year group but will carry them through their 11+ exam and set a strong foundation for their secondary education.
Your child will be taught and guided by an expert qualified teacher and 11+ writing tutor, Anna Donovan, who has decades of experience of school class teaching and assessing children in Year 6/KS2 writing and for 11+ exams for the most sought-after schools. She prepares bespoke lessons using her knowledge to engage, develop and support your child to make the quickest progress.

Who is this suitable for?
This course is suitable for children taking highly competitive grammar second-stage writing exams, FSCE and/or independent school exams in 2025. 

What do the 3-term courses cover?

What will my child achieve?
•    Confidence to plan and write, no matter how challenging.
•    Expertise in all 11+/KS2 writing skills.
•    An ability to quickly and confidently self-assess their writing, identifying next steps/targets.
