Preparing for the 11 Plus This Easter in Buckingham?

Buckingham sits in north Buckinghamshire. Every child hoping for a Grammar School place must still sit the Buckinghamshire Secondary Transfer Test, set by GL Assessment on behalf of the county’s Grammar Schools. Buckingham families are looking towards a single, well-known local option: Royal Latin School, the only Grammar School in north Buckinghamshire. For a Buckingham family with a child in Year 5, the relevant test is expected in September 2027, at the start of Year 6, making the Easter holiday beforehand a crucial window for focused preparation.

That is exactly what this course is designed for. Instead of generic worksheets, pupils get live small-group sessions with tutors who know the Buckinghamshire test format inside out, timed mock papers that replicate real exam pressure, and feedback that turns Easter revision into real momentum ahead of the autumn test.

11 Plus Exam Support for Grammar Schools Near Buckingham

Competition for Grammar School places is intense in Buckingham, Buckinghamshire. Our intensive Easter revision course helps students by aligning with the requirements, curriculum, and exam format used by local Buckinghamshire Grammar Schools.
The importance of 11 Plus preparation can be highlighted from the below discussion:

Buckinghamshire Secondary Transfer Test

The Buckinghamshire Secondary Transfer Test is produced and marked by GL assessment on behalf of The Buckinghamshire Grammar Schools (TBGS), the consortium of 13 Grammar Schools that share a single test. Children sit 2 papers on the same day, covering Verbal, Mathematical, and Non-verbal skills, and only need to take the test once, no matter how many Buckinghamshire Grammar Schools they apply to.

Royal Latin School

Royal Latin School, a co-educational Grammar School with a sixth form on Chandos Road in Buckingham, has the latest Published Admission Number of 180 places for Year 7. It is the only Grammar School in north Buckinghamshire and operates its own catchment area system, giving priority to children living close to the school.

Aylesbury High School

Aylesbury High School offers 189 places for girls in Year 7 each year. The school uses the county-wide qualifying score of 121 for Grammar School entry.

Buckinghamshire Area

Across Buckinghamshire, children need a standardised score of 121 or above to be considered qualified for a Grammar School place. A score of 121 or above means a child is eligible for Grammar School admission, but it does not guarantee a place. If a school has more qualified applicants than available places, it uses its published oversubscription criteria to determine admissions.

Our Approach to 11 Plus Preparation

For over a decade, our 11 Plus Tutoring team has been supporting children as they prepare for the demands of selective school entrance examinations. We carefully select tutors and follow thorough recruitment and safeguarding procedures, so families can be confident their child is learning with experienced professionals who understand the requirements of Buckinghamshire and other selective school tests.

Give your child a focused start to their September exam preparation with our Easter course. Pupils will benefit from live small-group lessons, realistic timed mock exams, individual feedback, and carefully planned revision to strengthen weaker areas, improve exam technique, and build confidence when tackling challenging questions. You can also discover what parents and pupils think by visiting our Trustpilot profile to read genuine reviews from families we have supported.

11 Plus Easter Course - Chosen by Buckingham Parents

A Buckingham pupil building test-day confidence:

After hearing positive feedback about our Easter course, one Buckingham family decided it was the right opportunity to give their Year 5 daughter extra support before the September exam. She had been finding it difficult to manage her time during practice papers, particularly when faced with longer Maths problems. Over the 8 sessions, her tutor introduced practical techniques for working more efficiently, encouraging her to approach multi-step questions in a clear, structured way.

A Maids Moreton family targeting Royal Latin School

Through our Easter revision course, a Year 5 boy from Maids Moreton, just outside Buckingham, strengthened Non-Verbal Reasoning, an area his parents felt was weaker than his English and Maths. Small-group teaching let his tutor give direct, repeated practice on pattern and sequence questions, and his parents noted a clear improvement in both accuracy and confidence by the end of the week.

11 Plus Easter Revision - FAQs Explained

How important is Easter for 11 Plus students in Buckingham?
Easter in Year 5 can be a useful point to review core 11 Plus skills before Year 6 preparation becomes more intensive. It gives pupils time to identify weaker areas, practise unfamiliar question types, and build confidence before the summer term.
Which Grammar Schools Do Buckingham Students Prepare For?
The main Grammar School in Buckingham, Buckinghamshire, is Royal Latin School. There are also many prestigious Grammar Schools around Buckingham, such as Dr Challoner’s Grammar School, Dr Challoner’s High School, High Wycombe, and Sir William Borlase’s Grammar School.
How hard is it to get into Royal Latin School from Buckingham?
Getting into the Royal Latin School for Year 7 is very competitive. Applicants must score a minimum standardised qualifying score of 121 on the Secondary Transfer Test, a threshold met by roughly the top third of test takers, and then compete for just 180 available Year 7 places.
Is the Buckinghamshire 11 Plus the same for all schools in Buckingham?
The Buckinghamshire Secondary Transfer Test is used as the common selection test for Buckinghamshire Grammar Schools. However, individual schools can have different admission criteria, catchment arrangements and oversubscription rules.
When should my child take mock exams before the Buckinghamshire 11 Plus?
Mock exam sessions for Year 5 students start between January and April. Easter break, with no pressure from schoolwork, is the ideal time for students to take mock exams and boost their revision.
Is Easter revision enough for 11 Plus preparation in Buckinghamshire?
Easter revision can provide a valuable boost, but it is usually best viewed as one part of a wider preparation plan. Continued practice after Easter allows pupils to revisit weaker areas, build familiarity with question formats and develop timing skills before the test.
How can my child improve speed in the 11 Plus exam during Easter?
Our 11 Plus revision course helps students boost speed and time management through past paper practice, consistent mock exam revision and a focus on strong exam techniques.
