About this Event
What is the?
The Summer Intensive Course is specifically tailored to improve your child’s grades in the run-up to their upcoming 7 Plus entrance examinations. It is ideal for students who began their preparation late and need to cover the curriculum in a short time, as well as for those who have been working throughout the year and want to refine their skills to achieve higher marks.
It’s no secret that a child’s academics tend to falter over the long summer break, for this reason it’s important they revisit the most commonly featured subjects of the exam to fill any remaining gaps in knowledge and strengthen their understanding of those already learned. The week has lessons based on the four key elements of your child’s 7 plus admissions process: Maths, English, Reasoning (verbal/non-verbal) and Interview Skills. We ensure key areas of the subjects are covered throughout the week and detailed feedback on your child is recorded as the course progresses. Our interview sessions teach your child what to expect on the day of the interview, how to tackle more challenging interview questions and how to confidently take part in group interviews.
Class size is limited, with a 7:1 student-to-tutor ratio to ensure focused and effective learning. Coursebooks and materials are provided throughout the course and returned to students at the end, allowing them to revise what was taught in class or practise topics our tutors have identified as sticking points before taking their exams.
How is the course structured?
The Summer Intensive Course runs for five days (Monday to Friday), providing your child intensive tuition from 10:00 am to 3:30 pm. The classes are interactive and encouraging, with a team of expert tutors who keep children engaged and excited throughout the week.
The course ends with mock examinations conducted in timed test condition. This gives the opportunity for your child to become more comfortable with the format of their upcoming exams, as well as allowing us insight into their strengths/weaknesses, and providing detailed feedback and advice to parents upon completion of the course.
Here are some topics of what the Summer holiday courses cover:
- Arithmetic and solidfying number bonds for quickest method (maths)
- Money and word problems (maths)
- Shapes and their properties (maths)
- Telling the time (maths)

Testimonials
“My child attended the October half term camp. This was probably the most valuable investment I made in my my child’s 11+ journey. The feedback report I received was far superior to any feedback that I received from any other source (including 1:1 tutors from another company) and helped me focus on the right areas to help my child with the 11+ exam.”
FAIZA (Verified on Google)
“Really grateful to the team. My youngest attended courses for 11 plus prep and then we took up their online tuition to finish up with her and my son doing GCSEs next summer. I wasn’t too keen on online to begin with but it certainly does the trick. We have got places for our top three choices and feel very confident about the pending GCSE results. Very happy, highly recommended.”
STEVEN GAYLE (Verified on Facebook)
“Excellent Saturday school and tuition. Run by friendly, professional people with many years of experience with the schooling systems (grammars and fee paying private schools). My son attended from age 8 to 10 when he sat the 11+ and passed Kent grammar exams with flying colours. I recommend 11PlusLondon very highly and now use them for my youngest son, who enjoys the classes.”

SAMUEL DU (Verified on Google)
“We have done a variety of courses and mock tests, leading up to our child’s 11+ exams. All were great help with knowing what areas we needed to work on and also helped our son feel relaxed in his actual exams, and not fretting about his interviews. The feedback reports were really informative and then we could discuss things further with Jane and her team, so we really got great assistance.”
