More Information

Numerous grammar schools necessitate a successful interview performance from your child to secure a spot.

Sometimes, these interviews are obligatory for enrolment, and potentially to ascertain scholarship eligibility.

Furthermore, interviews may serve as a deciding factor if your child is to be granted admission in cases where 11 Plus applicants have comparable scores.

In such circumstances, it is crucial for your child to be aware of how to behave and what to anticipate during an interview to prove to the school that they are worthy of a place.

Thus, it is advisable for youngsters who intend to apply for admission to a grammar school to prepare for pre-admission interviews.

Our course designed for preparing children for 11 Plus interviews aims to equip them with the following abilities:

  • Enhance their personality and build confidence to present themselves in the best possible manner
  • Articulate their accomplishments and achievements effectively
  • Develop effective communication and presentation skills
  • Expertly respond to and answer questions posed by the interviewer
  • Attain an understanding of the school’s reputation, history, and current affairs related to the institution

Mock interviews are an integral component of the Interview Preparation programme, providing individuals with an opportunity to practice their interview skills.

Within 48 hours of the mock interviews, participants will receive a detailed report outlining their strengths and weaknesses.

This report is designed to highlight any areas that may require additional attention and improvement.

While not all grammar schools require mandatory interviews, a majority of them do.

As a result, it is recommended that you conduct some research to determine whether the school your child is seeking admission to mandates interviews or not.

Although some children might excel in verbal communication, they may struggle with performing well in formal interviews.

Pre-admission interviews at grammar schools have a specific format, where children are expected to answer formally and logically.

Even the most eloquent children may experience nervousness when faced with formal interview questions.

The course is designed to equip children with the necessary skills to handle these types of situations.

Our aim is to offer an array of services that cater to your child’s success in the 11 Plus examination and enhance their probability of gaining admission to a grammar school.

Our 11 Plus preparation services encompass private tuition, group tuition, mock examinations, and interview preparation.
