Bicester families pursuing selective secondary education navigate a fundamentally different landscape than nearby Kent areas. Oxfordshire has no state grammar schools; all local secondary education is comprehensive. Families who value academic selectivity must look to neighbouring counties: Royal Latin School, Aylesbury Grammar School, Aylesbury High School, Sir Henry Floyd Grammar School and selected independent schools.
For Bicester families considering Buckinghamshire grammar schools, admission is highly competitive and based on performance in the Buckinghamshire Secondary Transfer Test. While achieving the qualifying score of 121 is an important milestone, oversubscribed schools often admit pupils with stronger scores, depending on their admissions criteria.
Our 11 Plus summer intensive course serves families who have decided to pursue selective entry, providing the specialised preparation that gives their child the best chance of qualifying.

Children often understand the curriculum but need practice applying their knowledge effectively under timed conditions.
Building reasoning skills
Verbal Reasoning and Non-Verbal Reasoning question types require dedicated preparation beyond what is typically covered in primary school.

Timed exercises help pupils work more efficiently while maintaining consistency across different question formats.
Increasing confidence
Regular mock papers and structured practice help children become more comfortable with exam conditions and reduce test-day nerves.

Building Exam Confidence Through Structured Summer Preparation
Struggling with Verbal Reasoning timing was holding back a Year 5 student from Bicester, despite strong performance in school. He often understood the questions but spent too long analysing answer choices, leaving sections unfinished in practice papers. During the four-week summer course, tutors taught him efficient problem-solving techniques, time-management strategies, and methods for identifying common Verbal Reasoning patterns more quickly. Through regular timed exercises and mock papers, his speed and accuracy improved steadily. By the end of the programme, he was completing papers within the time limit and approaching questions with far greater confidence. He later sat his entrance tests feeling well prepared and successfully secured a place at The Royal Latin School.
