Overview
This four-book collection delivers focused, bite-sized 11+ practice for the GL Assessment-style exams used by many grammar and independent schools, built around the trusted CGP 10-Minute Tests format. Covering Maths, English, Verbal Reasoning, and Non-Verbal Reasoning, each book is packed with more than thirty short timed tests that build stamina and confidence without overwhelming a nine- or ten-year-old. Step-by-step answers are included in pull-out booklets, so parents and tutors can mark work instantly and spot weak topics early. Progress charts track improvement, making this set an efficient way to prepare for the Kent Test and similar 11+ entrance exams.
About the Books
Designed specifically for children in the 9-10 age bracket preparing for 11+ entrance exams, this set tackles all four core testing areas used by GL Assessment and similar providers. The Maths book works through number, shape, measures, and data handling questions in short, timed bursts that mirror real exam pacing, helping children get comfortable with the pressure of working against the clock. The English book mixes grammar, punctuation, spelling, and comprehension practice with lighter puzzle pages that keep sessions varied and engaging rather than repetitive. The Verbal Reasoning book introduces the wide range of question types children may meet in an 11+ test, from code-breaking to word connections, building the quick-thinking skills examiners look for. The Non-Verbal Reasoning book focuses on pattern recognition, sequences, and spatial reasoning, an area many children find unfamiliar until they've had dedicated practice. Across all four books, each test takes roughly ten minutes, making them easy to slot into a weekday evening or weekend morning without turning exam prep into a chore. Every test is followed by fully worked, step-by-step answers in a separate pull-out booklet, so mistakes can be understood rather than just corrected. A progress chart at the back of each book lets children and parents see improvement test by test, which is a genuine confidence boost during what can be a stressful run-up to assessment day. Together, the four books form a rounded, structured revision routine that covers every subject a typical 11+ test is likely to include.

About the Authors
CGP is a British publisher specializing in exam revision and practice materials for students from primary school through A-Level, with a particular reputation for clear, exam-focused 11+ preparation resources. Rather than crediting a single named author, CGP's books are produced by an in-house team of writers, editors, and former teachers who work directly from current exam board and test provider specifications. This collaborative approach is why CGP's 10-Minute Tests series is widely used by parents and tutors preparing children for GL Assessment, CEM-style, and independent school entrance exams, including the Kent Test, across England and Wales.
