“I found this exam experience interesting. I found this very helpful as now I know what a real exam is like. I think I will be doing another mock exam in June.”

“I though the questions were not too hard, but some were challenging. It was a good idea to do the Pod.”

“I found it was good getting used to the conditions. The English paper was very good. The maths paper was tricky.”

“I had a great time here doing tests. normally don’t like tests, however, this has been better than I expected. It was great!”

“Your mocks and holiday tuition was an extremely good help with learning and confidence!”

“My son took part in 2 of your mock test sessions. He showed improvement in the second one and improvement again in the real thing. He was confident when going for real thing so we thank you for running the mocks.”

“These 11 plus mock materials are fantastic. I have used both the English and Maths materials and can honestly say that they are excellent for the CSSE exams. The papers are at CSSE standard and are exactly in the same format.

“As a parent, I found the answers really helpful, especially the detailed marked up writing exemplars - you never quite know what the CSSE are looking for, but here at least you have something that can help show what is expected. The whole series is an invaluable resource for 11 plus prep!”

“I found Simone to be very accommodating and knowledgeable in what she was offering. Clearly she has considerable experience, and was able to provide answers to my numerous questions. I also greatly appreciated her honest and transparent communication.

“Additional points to mention are that you receive (via the post) your child’s original completed paper along with detailed feedback, their ranking and a comprehensive marking scheme. You may also be interested to know that 11pluspod make their previous exam papers available as a pdf download for a small fee.”

In conclusion I would highly recommend her company to anyone who is serious about assisting their children to prepare for the exam.

“My son attended both an 11pluspod mock exam, together with an additional summer break tuition session. I feel the mock exam papers were particularly well researched and written; providing an accurate reflection of the recently updated CSSE standard.

“Going through this process offered my son an authentic, real world experience. I would suggest he benefited greatly from this in numerous ways.”
