11+ Preparation

As children progress through the school, they are given increasing responsibilities and encouraged to build their self-confidence, ensuring a smooth transition to senior school. We maintain our focus on providing a broad and balanced education, allowing children to enjoy their learning while also preparing them for the crucial senior school entrance exams in Year 6.

Our approach to 11+ preparation is gradual and supportive, with a strong emphasis on understanding each child as an individual. Rather than relying on constant cramming and coaching, we teach children how to apply their knowledge effectively and develop strong exam techniques through exposure to a range of practice papers. Our goal is to nurture confident, happy young learners who are well-equipped to thrive in whichever senior school they move on to.

Choosing the right senior school is a significant decision, and at Norfolk House, we take this responsibility seriously. Teachers meet personally with parents to discuss this important next step, considering every aspect of potential schools, from academic achievement to size, location, and culture.
