Just wondering if it is worth doing 8+ mock exam a month before the actual exam? I mean do 7 year old children (mine will be 7 years 3 months old) learn from mistakes made during the mock exam experience and will able to make less during the actual exam?

Yes absolutely essential in my experience. There's been loads of studies done to back it up too.

Yes I would say that practice tests are the best use of time right now, you can then spend time coaching on areas of weakness. A month is a long time for a seven year old and they can make a lot of improvement in one month. Good luck!
