How Our Summer Course Supported an Willenhall Pupil
A Year 5 student from Willenhall had strong skills in English and Maths but struggled with the fast pace of the West Midlands Grammar Schools Entrance Test. The multiple-choice format of the GL Assessment made her very anxious, which led to careless mistakes. This changed during our online booster course in August. Practising at home in a small group of 4 to 6 students helped her get focused support and build confidence. Through weekly timed mock tests, she learned how to manage her nerves, keep track of time, and use tricks to solve complex reasoning puzzles more quickly. By turning her anxiety into steady focus, she felt ready in September and secured her Year 7 spot at Queen Mary’s High School.

Why the 11 Plus Summer Booster Course Matters for Willenhall Families
The West Midlands Consortium exam, created by GL Assessment, has two multiple-choice papers. The 11 Plus covers English and Verbal Reasoning (50% of the score), Maths (25%), and Non-Verbal and Spatial Reasoning (25%). Scores are adjusted for age to make sure younger children are treated fairly.
Boys hoping for one of the 180 Year 7 places at Queen Mary’s Grammar School need to take the West Midlands Grammar Schools entrance test. This exam, set by GL Assessment, has two 50-minute papers with questions on verbal, non-verbal, and numerical reasoning.
Girls who want one of the 150 Year 7 places at Queen Mary’s High School must take the West Midlands GL Assessment. This entrance exam has two papers that test verbal, numerical, and non-verbal reasoning. Places are given only by age-standardised rank scores, not by where you live.
Parents in Aldridge should list their chosen grammar schools on the Local Authority Common Application Form (CAF) by October 31, 2026. When you fill out the Walsall Council CAF for the WS9 area, put the schools in your true order of preference. The council will offer your child the highest school on your list that they qualify for.
Walsall grammar schools use age-standardised scores, balanced around a median baseline of 200 [WS9]. The GL Assessment system adjusts raw marks based on each child’s exact age, so younger August-born pupils have a fair chance compared to older September-born classmates.
