Are there any parents of children who have been recently admitted into Forest School in Snaresbrook/Walthamstow, Bancroft’s or Chigwell? My child is preparing for 11+ and I would be grateful if you could share some exam prep tips, recommend tutors, share exam experience. Thanks

Hello!

Our child passed the 7+ for Bancroft's and Chigwell and happy to share the details of the tutor. She offered 11+ too. We started a year and 4 months before the exam with 1 hour a week before increasing it to 2 in the 6 months before the exam. 1 hr maths/nvr and 1 hr English. Started looking at past papers 4 months before before timed mocks for the last 2 month. Tutor created a great 'cheat sheet' with key points for the exam. Happy to share the details if you're still interested. Child walked out and said exams were what they had been prepped for except 1 maths question in the Bancrofts paper which they couldn't do (asked the tutor who said they include 1 or 2 each year which the school doesn't expect anybody to pass.) Next month - got 2/2 offers
