Beat the 11+ Stress: Your Guide to GL Assessment Success
Feeling the pressure of the 11+ deadline? You’re not alone – many parents worry about finding the right prep for their child’s future at a grammar school. The good news is that the GL Assessment 11+ is a predictable, structured route that a growing number of schools trust, and there’s a proven plan to help your child shine.
What is the GL Assessment? It’s the most common 11+ board in the UK, used by schools across the southeast and Midlands, including St Augustine’s and St Catherine’s. The test focuses on reading, maths and language – the core skills schools want to see. By spotting a child’s strengths early, it gives you a clear picture of where to concentrate study time.
How the exam is set: 20 multiple‑choice maths questions, a short passage for reading comprehension, and a spelling/word‑building exercise. All within around 60 minutes. Knowing the format means you can practise targeted drills and build confidence.
