Year Six is an important year in the life of any child.
In the last year of Junior school, children and their parents look forward
to Senior school and new issues arise:
Does my child
need extra help with his English?
Her class teacher
just doesn't have time to help her with the basics.
He just can't
seem to get started with story writing.
Her stories
are lovely but she can't manage a time limit!
I am considering
putting him in for an examination to a selective school, but is his
English good enough?
She hasn't a
clue about comprehensions.
If you share any of the concerns listed above then this is the book for you.

"I knew what my daughter needed but didn't know how to help. The book gave me practical advice and we made huge progress... My daughter has got much more confident now - not just in English but in all her school work. I'd recommend it to any parent who wants to help but doesn't know how." Abi Sandhu - Office Manager and Parent
"11+ English was fun. The exercises helped me with lots of things I used to get wrong, and my mum and I really enjoyed doing it. I didn't mind working at home once I could see how much better my marks were getting - especially in creative writing." Ellie Reynolds aged 11
