FREE 11+ Information Events

See below for more information and booking form.

If your child is sitting the 11+ entrance exam for grammar schools, a private school entrance exam or if you are still thinking about whether your child should sit the exam or not, finding information about the 11+ journey can be a challenge. Most schools don’t know much about these exams and cannot give parents guidance.

At Kip McGrath Brentwood we have helped hundreds of children over the last 19 years (between 60-80 students every year). We have a wealth of knowledge and experience as teachers and some of our team have also been parents of children in grammar and private schools .

We know you might have a lot of questions on the 11+ journey and therefore we are hosting free information evenings where you can find out more.

Find out…..

  • What to expect in the FSCE (Chelmsford Girls) and CSSE (All other Essex Grammar Schools) Exam
  • Expectations of the children
  • How to prepare
  • Content of the exams
  • An opportunity to ask any questions you might have regarding the 11+ with our 11+ expert teacher.

These are FREE IN CENTRE events, however, we are asking for bookings so we know our numbers. Please only book one person per household, as we only have limited spaces available, book now to save your space!

  • Lots of good information
  • Information on what to expect, past exam papers, process of application, pass scores
  • To understand how to register and the different types of 11+ exams, school cut offs etc…
  • Past papers
  • Understanding the next steps
  • Information on girls school exams/past marks
  • All very informative
  • Exam papers and the differences in them
  • Hearing about the time line and the mock exams.
  • Their Personal experience and their children’s.
  • Understanding how the exams go and more info about the schools. Also the reading list
  • Hearing an honest opinion about how grammar schools differ from mainstream senior schools in terms of workload and expectations.

The event exceeded my expectations of what kind of information would be included. The manager was so welcoming and made me feel like it was a casual yet informative chat with a another mum. She made me feel at ease, knowing I wasn't the only one with all these emotions. As a parent you want the best for your child but without the overwhelming pressure life brings. I'm so excited for both my children to start their journey with KIP.
