The Common School 11+ Readiness Assessment
A professional mock exam that shows exactly where your child stands before the real 11+.
Students preparing for schools such as:
Preparing for the 11+ can feel uncertain.
Many parents ask the same questions:
• Is my child actually ready for the exam?
• How do they compare with other students?
• What areas do they need to improve before the real test?
Without clear feedback, it’s difficult to know if preparation is working.
The Common School Readiness Assessment gives parents a clear picture of their child’s strengths, weaknesses, and readiness level.
Each student receives:
-
A structured exam environment that prepares students for the pressure of the real test.
-
A breakdown of strengths and weaknesses across key 11+ skills.

See how your child performed compared to other students.
-
Clear guidance on the areas that need the most attention before the real exam.

Meet the Founder
The Common School was created to help students develop strong thinking skills, confidence, and exam readiness.
After working with students preparing for selective school entrance exams, it became clear that many families lacked clear insight into their child’s strengths and weaknesses.
Rather than simply providing practice papers, The Common School focuses on diagnostic assessment — helping parents understand exactly where their child stands and what skills need the most attention.
The assessments are designed using the same reasoning skills and problem-solving styles commonly tested in selective school entrance exams.
Our goal is to give families clarity and confidence during the 11+ journey.
Give Your Child a Clear Picture of Their 11+ Readiness
