Here at Kip, we have developed a writing technique that helps to make writing more manageable. We find lots of our children find it difficult to know where to start with their writing as they want to include all the literary elements they have learned. Our writing technique makes writing more ‘formulaic’ so that the students can follow simple steps to ensure that their writing ‘ticks the boxes’ needed to get the highest marks that they can in their 11+exam.

We have recognised that an in depth understanding of Algebra is needed to pass the 11+ maths exam for both CSSE and CEM – it is a complex topic which connects to many other mathematical themes, such as: finding a missing number using inverse techniques, recognising patterns, nth term sequences, BIDMAS and knowing how to break down a complex word problem and use a formula to work it out. This workshop will focus on these crucial topics and is recommended for anyone taking the 11+ this September!

The CEM exam requires speed and attention to detail. It has different timed sections of comprehension, verbal reasoning, numerical reasoning and non-verbal reasoning. The children also must manage how to use an answer booklet and fill it incorrectly to avoid losing marks. We have made our own CEM paper that the children will sit in this workshop. They will go through the paper, section by section, with guidance from our 11+ specialist teacher. We will then discuss each question and work on the quickest methods for finding the answers. Timing and exam strategy are key to acing this exam so it is a must-do for any girl hoping to go to Chelmsford County High School for Girls Grammar School.

 

Non-Verbal Reasoning (NVR) is problem-solving using pictures and diagrams. It tests a pupil’s ability to analyse visual information and solve problems based on visual reasoning. Pupils are expected to have a solid knowledge of shape and measure, especially in topics such as rotation and symmetry (credit: Bofa) Join us for our NVR workshop to practise the skills required with our 11+ expert teacher in a fun and engaging way.
