2027 Entry
This course is scheduled for August 2026. It is designed for Year 5 pupils preparing for the September 2026 assessment used by Wirral’s non-Catholic grammar schools, leading to entry into a Wirral grammar school in September 2027. According to the official Wirral Council admissions page, registration has closed, and the assessment will take place on Tuesday, 15 September 2026, as set by Quest Assessments for this entry year. Families are told their test venue by the end of August 2026, with the secondary school place application due by 31 October 2026 and National Offer Day on Monday 1 March 2027.Looking for an Online 11 Plus Summer Course in Oxton?
11 Plus Tutoring runs an August booster course every year for Oxton’s Year 5 pupils as the Wirral Grammar Schools Consortium assessment approaches. Families in CH43, CH42, and CH44 are generally best placed for Wirral Grammar School for Boys and Wirral Grammar School for Girls in nearby Bebington, with Calday Grange Grammar School and West Kirby Grammar School further out towards the coast as alternative options within the same consortium. All four schools share a single assessment, taken on a single day, so a child takes it once, and the result applies to whichever schools they name.
August is one of the most important stages of 11 Plus preparation because it is the only extended period without school commitments. It gives children the opportunity to strengthen weaker topics, improve exam technique, and develop the speed and confidence needed for the September assessment. With consistent revision and regular timed practice, pupils can enter the examination feeling far better prepared and more self-assured.

Why Families in Oxton Seek the 11 Plus Summer Booster Course
Exam practice gap
Pupils may have completed topic-based exercises but have limited experience of answering complete GL Assessment-style papers within strict time limits.
Timing and speed
The course helps children develop a better pace, avoid spending too long on difficult questions, and complete more of each paper accurately.
Reasoning subjects
Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning can feel unfamiliar to many pupils, so families value guided practice in question types, patterns, and problem-solving techniques.
Self-study plateau
When home practice stops producing noticeable progress, tutor-led sessions can identify weak areas and provide practical ways to improve them.
Confidence-building
Regular testing and constructive feedback help reduce exam anxiety and enable pupils to approach the entrance test with greater confidence.
Structured August learning
A planned summer timetable keeps children focused and ensures consistent revision throughout the school holidays.
Students We Commonly Support for the 11 Plus in Oxton
Families from Oxton, Birkenhead, Prenton, and the wider CH43 postcode, including CH42 and CH44, also take part, with pupils attending local primary schools such as Oxton St Saviour’s CofE Primary School and other nearby Oxton and Prenton primaries, such as St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School. Most of these children are preparing for the Wirral Grammar Schools Consortium assessment, working towards a Year 7 place at Calday Grange Grammar School, Wirral Grammar School for Boys, Wirral Grammar School for Girls and West Kirby Grammar School.

How Regular Mock Papers Helped an Oxton Student Improve
Rotated shapes were the sticking point in one Oxton Year 5 student's non-verbal reasoning practice, dragging down scores that were otherwise solid across the rest of the paper. Repeated, targeted drills on spatial reasoning over the four-week course, combined with tutor feedback on spotting patterns more quickly, brought steady improvement in exactly that area. By the closing sessions, non-verbal reasoning was no longer the weakest section, and the overall paper score reflected a more balanced performance.

Why the 11 Plus Summer Booster Course Matters for Oxton Families
The Wirral Grammar Schools Consortium assessment is administered as two papers on the same day, covering Verbal Reasoning, Non-Verbal Reasoning, and Mathematics.
Wirral Grammar School for Boys plans to admit 170 Students. Only Students who attain the required standard in the arrangements for selection by reference to ability and aptitude will be eligible to be considered for admission to the school.
Wirral’s non-Catholic grammar schools give priority to certain children who are eligible for free school meals. However, pupils must still achieve the required grammar school standard to be considered for admission.
According to Wirral Council, meeting the grammar school standard is the first step, with each school then applying its own published oversubscription criteria, including priority for children eligible for free school meals who meet the standard, ahead of remaining applicants.
Wirral Grammar School for Girls is a selective grammar school for girls with Academy status, serving pupils aged 11-18. The published admission number for year 7 in September 2027 is 180.
