@Razzmata if you are genuinely serious, why not ask different questions e.g:

Is there any useful prep for 11+ in years 3, 4 & 5?
We could suggest asking your DC's teacher queries on their progress, are they at GD in English / Maths etc. Get a tutor sorted in year 4. Start in year 5 etc

Or

I live in Kent / Bucks / Trafford ....... what do I need to know now for my Y2 child?
We could talk about the importance of catchments / distance and admission criteria.

Trying to start and sustain a support group for an exam 3.5 years away is just ridiculous

i would request you all to please keep the thread positive. No need for negativity.

For those who do not understand or appreciate the intent, let me clarify. But if you still do not understand or agree, please feel free to not comment.

This thread is for the journey towards 11+ prep. It can start with eg just reading, what books are most liked at the age etc so just motivating other parents with similar interests to kick the tyres and keep a nice paced healthy momentum.

Don’t do this to yourself or your child

This is bonkers. Please don't start worrying about the 11+ in Y2. You need to wait at least two years before 'prepping'. The best thing you can possibly do at this stage is let your child enjoy his or her primary years without stressing about (or even mentioning) future exams.

Why on earth would you prep for 11+ in YR2? They don’t take it until YR6

@Razzmata Are you genuinely serious?
