Plusling helps UK families prepare for selective-school entrance assessments. The 11+ is not one national paper: subjects, format, timing, and admissions rules can differ by school and area.

Start with the current official arrangements

Before choosing resources, check the admissions information published by each school or local authority you are considering. Confirm:

  • which subjects are assessed;
  • whether the assessment is on paper or digital;
  • how its papers or sections are organised and timed; and
  • the current registration, eligibility, and admissions rules.

These details determine what useful preparation looks like. A generic practice plan should never replace the current instructions for a target assessment. The 11+ test guidance hub explains how provider-level information and local arrangements fit together. The Bexley Selection Test guide and Kent Test guide keep two current, separate entry cycles anchored to their councils’ own guidance.

Prepare across four subject areas

Plusling covers English, Mathematics, Verbal Reasoning, and Non-Verbal Reasoning. The subject cards below explain the broad skill areas. The exact mix in a target assessment may be different.

Build foundations before adding pressure

Useful preparation can begin with accurate, untimed work: understand the question, choose a method, and learn from mistakes. Shorter sessions can then support recall and fluency. Timed work is most useful when it matches the known format and timing of the target assessment.

Plusling offers Flash Practice, Focus Practice, Full Mock, and Survival. See how Plusling works for the current mode, feedback, and progress boundaries.

Treat progress as evidence, not an admissions forecast

Completed results, dates, streaks, and topic summaries can help a family decide what to revisit. They do not establish calibrated ability, predict a pass or admission, guarantee an outcome, or promise a school place.

Full Mock is a structured, timed Plusling practice sitting. Match any timed preparation to the current official arrangements for the school or area you have in mind. Compare the FREE tier and Plusling Family to see what fits your family, or head into the app to start practising today.
