Welcome to the Eleven Plus Centre
What started out as private tutoring based from home, has today evolved into a tuition centre which specialises in preparing children for local Grammar and Independent School exams. Our aim at Eleven Plus Centre is to provide a professional teaching service which ensures an enjoyable and stress free journey for both parents and children through the whole 11+ process.
The Eleven Plus Centre was set up by us in 2008, a husband and wife team who have over 20 years’ worth of outstanding (rated by OFSTED) teaching experience between us in local mainstream schools. We tutored privately on weekends and evenings for the Tiffin, Tiffin Girls’ and the Slough school entrance tests. Alongside this, many of our pupils were also successful in their local Independent School papers and secured places in Notting Hill & Ealing High, Lady Eleanor Hollis and Hampton School. With a high success rate (this includes our son and daughter who passed their exams) mainly due to our use of specific resources and unique teaching styles, we decided to tutor small groups and, eventually, the idea of a specialist tuition centre was conceived.
11 Plus Tuition in Hounslow
Based at the Vista Centre in Hounslow, our classrooms are equipped with state of the art technology which allows our lessons to not only be interactive and enjoyable but effective too. The use of technology allows us to easily monitor the progress of our pupils alongside their speed and accuracy, which are the two main components of the exams.
Our lessons encourage students to learn and engage with key concepts in a fun and interactive manner. We aim to boost confidence for the exams and personalise learning so that our pupils continue to enjoy success and flourish in class when they get into their chosen schools.
Our classes are restricted to just 12 students. Classes may also have a Teaching Assistant to provide additional support as and when needed. Homework is given every week; this may be through our online platform or paper based. Our pupils are assessed on a regular basis and their progress is mapped and fed back to you, highlighting any areas of particular concern.
We recommended that our Eleven Plus programme is initiated in Year 4 and followed for two years to ensure that your child has a sound grounding to sit every exam with a high degree of confidence by the start of Year 6.
