Why this course?

• Does your child need to achieve a top score in writing for their 11+ exam?
• Do they have gaps in knowledge or need more confidence to write using a wide range of skills, at length and with high quality?
• Are you looking to get ahead this year so there is less stress next year?
• Are you looking for a highly trained, supportive and encouraging primary teacher and a small class size?
• Do you want a teacher with proven results and parent testimonials?

This course, well-established over many years and highly regarded by families, will develop in your child a flair, confidence and enthusiasm for writing that will not only make them stand out in their year group but will carry them through their 11+ exam and set a strong foundation for their secondary education.

Your child will be taught and guided by an expert qualified teacher and 11+ writing tutor, Anna Donovan, who has decades of experience in school class teaching and assessing children in Year 2 SATS and Year 6 SATS writing and for 11+ exams for the most sought-after schools. She prepares bespoke lessons using her knowledge to engage, develop and support your child to make the quickest progress.
