11+ Maths
11+ Maths tests number fluency and problem solving without a calculator. Strong arithmetic, fractions and multi-step reasoning are the foundations every grammar paper builds on.
The Maths paper rewards accuracy under time pressure. Most questions are short, so a child who knows their tables and core methods cold can move quickly and bank marks.
Word problems are where many marks are won or lost: they combine reading and maths, so a calm, step-by-step method matters as much as the arithmetic itself.
