11+ English: A Parent's Toolkit

Everything your child needs to know about English at 11+

Full of wise guidance and sound advice

Easy to read, fun and practical

11+ English: A Parent's Toolkit is written to enable parents and children to work together on all aspects of English around the transition to senior schools, and specifically for children who are going to take entrance examinations for grammar schools or selective independent schools.

Ideal for the child who:

Their class teacher just doesn't have time to help them with the basics.
They just can't seem to get started with story writing.
Their stories are lovely but they can't manage a time limit!
I would like them to go to a selective school, but I'm worried that their English is not good enough.
They have no clue about comprehensions.

If you share any of these concerns then this is the book for you.

11 + English: A Parent's Toolkit has been distilled from Katherine Hamlyn's 30 years of experience of teaching at this level. The highly readable guide pinpoints common problems and, using child-centred techniques and games concentrating on relaxed child/parent collaboration, takes you through essential English with common sense, clarity and humour.
