Success Story – Cookham 11 Plus Summer Booster Course
One of our Cookham students joined the 11 Plus Summer Booster Course during the final summer before their exam. At the start, they found timed papers challenging and struggled with completing questions within the allocated time. Throughout August, they worked through structured revision, regular mock tests, and focused feedback sessions. This helped them improve both accuracy and exam speed, while also building confidence under pressure. By the end of the course, the student was completing full papers within time limits and performing consistently across Maths, English, Verbal Reasoning and Non-Verbal Reasoning. They went on to sit the 11 Plus GL Assessment feeling well-prepared and confident on exam day.

Why the 11 Plus Summer Booster Matters for Cookham Families
The Buckinghamshire GL Assessment is taken in September of Year 6, with out-of-county registration usually completed in May or June of Year 5. Children who continue timed practice during August are often better prepared for the pace and pressure of the real exam.
The Royal Grammar School (High Wycombe) admits boys through the Buckinghamshire Secondary Transfer Test. Many families in Cookham and the surrounding SL6 area apply through the same Buckinghamshire 11 Plus process.
According to the Buckinghamshire 11 Plus guide, the GL Assessment consists of two timed papers, sat on the same day. Paper 1 covers English and Verbal Reasoning, while Paper 2 covers Maths and Non-Verbal Reasoning. Timed mock practice is important for building speed, stamina, and exam confidence.
Wycombe High School admits 192 girls into Year 7 each year through the Buckinghamshire GL Assessment. Families from Cookham and surrounding areas may apply through the same Buckinghamshire 11 Plus process, subject to the school’s admissions criteria.
