© 2023 Kingston Grammar School 11+ Information Evening | 9 WHAT DOES THE 11+ EXAM INVOLVE? Our aim is to make this experience as stress free as possible. We want to find out what our candidates can do, rather than what they cannot do, and our judgement about future potential and ‘teachability’ is just as important as current performance. English (50 minutes) Candidates are assessed in these three National Curriculum areas: Reading Writing Speaking and Listening (informally at the interview stage) These abilities will be tested by asking the candidate to complete a three-part examination paper which will be based around a given passage. Section A will consist of multiple-choice questions, Section B will consist of three multiple choice questions requiring analysis of the text whilst Section C will ask candidates to write a short composition. Candidates should answer questions based on any of the Attainment Targets up to and including Level 5, though the focus of the paper requires a thorough understanding of work up to and including Level 4. Spelling, grammar and punctuation will not be assessed separately. “Thank you for all your help during the admission process. Your insight and assistance have been invaluable!” Parent feedback, 2023 Mathematics (50 minutes) Candidates are tested on the material covered by the ‘Key Stage 2, Year 5 programme of study'. Subject areas include: • Number • Measurement • Geometry • Statistics The 11+ paper will test key skills, mathematical reasoning and problem solving and will assume knowledge of the material that a pupil completing Year 5 at a state primary would have covered. There will be a mixture of question types including descriptive worded questions in context. Knowledge and skills Numbers: • Positive and negative numbers • Place value • Whole number properties – factors, multiples, primes, squares, cubes • Fractions • Decimals • Sequences of numbers including fractions and decimals • Addition and subtraction (mental and written methods) • Multiplication and division (mental and written methods) Measurement: • Converting between units of metric measure • Calculate perimeter and area of composite rectilinear shapes • Solve problems with measure – length, area, volume, mass, money, time Geometry: • Properties of 2D shapes • Simple reflection and translation of 2D shapes • Angle facts and reasoning • Measurement using a ruler and protractor Statistics: • Use and interpret information in a line graph or bar chart • Use and interpret information in tables

© 2023 Kingston Grammar School 11+ Information Evening | 10 ENTRANCE EXAM TECHNIQUE Check through the paper: Don’t race to start writing before you have checked through it. Read the instructions and all questions carefully. Do the easiest questions first. This will help you to gain some confidence and feel less panicked about the harder questions later on. Plan your time: Some papers will provide the amount of time they suggest you spend on each section; others do not. Either way, make sure you have a plan before you begin and have noted the time that you will aim to begin each section. Plan to finish at least ten minutes before the end of the exam so you have time to check over your paper. Keep answers clear: Examiners have to mark many papers. You can help them to see where you deserve marks by providing answers that are clear and easy to read. It’s a simple exam tip but can make a real difference. Answer the question: Read the question properly. Seems obvious we know, but you will feel tempted to jump ahead due to the time pressure and make assumptions. Read the question twice if you have to! Highlight key points. Look at the marks. Is it a 5-mark question? They would probably like you to make 5 key points or show 5 stages of working out or, if it is only 1 mark, then they simply require the answer. Avoid the obvious mistakes: Every year, students lose marks unnecessarily for silly errors. For example, they forget to check whether there are questions on both sides of the exam paper. They misread questions. They answer too few – or too many – questions. Check the back of the paper to see if there are further questions – many people forget to do this. Show your workings: Showing your workings is especially helpful in maths. You may come to the wrong answer at the end but your method may be correct, so you’ll gain a few marks - which is better than none! If you don’t show your workings, the examiner can’t give you any credit for your method. Final checks: Check carefully through all of your answers, looking for any accidental errors. Read through slowly to check for missing words and to see that your answers make sense. If you spot mistakes, change them, even if that makes handwritten papers look a bit untidy. Plan your time well so you are able to make these essential final checks. Running out of time: If this does happen, don’t panic! If there is a question you can’t answer, move on. There are easier marks to gain in this time and you can always go back to it. It may be a case of writer’s block, and you’ll be amazed what comes back to you in half an hour! If you don’t even have time to write sentences, then write bullet answers. If you don’t have time to do the equation, then bullet what calculations you would do. Examiners can still give you marks for your method. estions carefully. Do the easiest nswers that are clear and easy to

Helpful tips for the 11+ English examination Section A • Read the passage carefully • If you are stuck on a question, move on and return to it later (You will save time!) • All the evidence you need for your answers is in the text. Go back and re-read the passage if you are unsure Section B • Read the instructions and example response carefully • Match the best quotation to the given point • Match the best explanation to your chosen quotation Section C • Read the prompt carefully and PLAN your answer before you begin writing it • Make sure that your answer makes sense and fits with the tone and events of the passage • Remember to write in paragraphs • Proofread your work to check for spelling and grammar errors

© 2023 Kingston Grammar School 11+ Information Evening | 39 SECTION B Create the best analysis of the text, selecting from the options provided. • In each question, you should select one quotation to include from the selection titled ‘Quotations’ and one explanation to include from the selection titled ‘Explanations’. • Once you have decided on your answers, write their letter in the space provided. • You should spend up to 10 minutes on this section. • This section is worth 6 marks. Example In the final paragraph, the narrator describes the effects of the fog on the inhabitants of London with the quotation: Answer (Choose from quotation A, B, or C below) B The writer’s use of this particular phrase suggests: Answer (Choose from explanation A, B, or C below) A Quotations a) “a hundred drivers” (line 32) b) “ghost figures” (line 35) c) "temporary safety" (line 36) Explanations a) the fog has dampened and hidden all signs of life b) the fog has caused people to die c) the fog has made people feel like it's Halloween The best quotation to select here is “ghost figures", as it describes how the greyness of the fog has made everything and everyone look grey and move slowly, therefore you should write out the answer, B, in the answer box. The best explanation here would be that the phrase suggests the fog has affected how people feel and how they are seen, therefore you should write out the answer, A, in the answer box.

© 2023 Kingston Grammar School 11+ Information Evening | 40 Now complete the questions below in the same way: 1. In paragraph one, the narrator describes the disorientating effect the fog has on the inhabitants of London with the quotation: Answer (Choose from quotation A, B, or C below) C The description used here suggests that: Answer (Choose from explanation A, B, or C below) A Quotations a) “It was a fog that had come three days before” (line 1) b) “did not seem inclined to go away” (line 2) c) “a game of Blind Man's Buff” (line 5) Explanations a) the fog has affected people's vision - they cannot see where they are going. b) it is exciting and makes people want to play games c) it makes people wear masks. [2 marks] 2. In the third paragraph, the writer creates a sense of how unhealthy the fog is with the quotation: Answer (Choose from quotation A, B, or C on the next page) B The use of the description here suggests that: Answer (Choose from explanation A, B, or C on the next page) A Quotations a) ”remote part of England" (line 15 - 16) b) ”dankness" (line 17) c) ”journeys on steam locomotives" (line 19) Explanations a) the fog makes the environment cold and damp b) the fog makes everything seem dark c) the fog makes sounds seem louder and more frightening [2 marks]

© 2023 Kingston Grammar School 11+ Information Evening | 45 11+ ENGLISH PRACTICE PAPER We have provided you with a sample 11+ entrance examination paper to practise on. The answers can be found on page 60. 50 MINUTES Read the following passage carefully and then answer all the questions on the Question Paper. The narrator of this story is called Christopher Banks. This passage is about an incident from Christopher’s childhood in China in the 1930s, which happened when he was nine years old. The Mysterious Disappearance The following day was again hot and humid. I have down the years, many times, gone over everything I can remember of that day, trying to put the various details in some coherent order. I cannot remember a great deal about the first part of the morning. I have a picture of how I said goodbye to my father as he went off to work. I was already outside, loitering around the 5 driveway waiting for him to emerge. He eventually did so, in a white suit and hat, holding a briefcase and a stick. He paused and glanced out toward our gateway. Then, as I waited for him to come further toward me, my mother appeared on the doorstep behind him and said something. My father walked back a few steps, exchanged some words with her, smiled, kissed her lightly on the cheek, then came striding out to where I was waiting. That is all I remember 10 of how he left that day. I do not remember now if we shook hands, if he patted my shoulder, if he turned back at the gate for a last wave. My overall recollection is that there was nothing in the manner of his parting that morning to set it apart from the way he had left for work on every other day. All I remember of the rest of the morning is that I played with my toy soldiers on the rug in my 15 bedroom. I remember my mother going out at some point and that I ate lunch with Mei Li in the kitchen. After lunch, needing to pass time until three o’clock, I walked the short distance along our road to the spot where two large oak trees stood, set back from the road, yet well in front of the nearest garden wall. Perhaps it was because I was already stoking up my courage, but I succeeded that day in 20 climbing one of the oaks to a new height. Perched triumphantly in its branches, I found I had a view across the hedges and grounds of all the neighbouring houses. I remember I sat up there for some time with the wind on my face. Eventually I climbed down the oak, wishing to go home for a glass of water and to check the time. As I came in through our gate, I saw two cars in the driveway. I was mildly curious about 25 these, but by this stage was far too preoccupied to give them much attention. Then, as I was crossing the hallway, I glanced through an open door and saw the three men, standing with their hats in their hands, talking with my mother. There was nothing particularly unusual about this but something in the atmosphere made me pause a moment there in the hall. As I did so, the voices broke off and I saw their faces turn to me. I recognized one of the men to be Mr. 30 Simpson, my father’s colleague at the office; the other two were strangers. Then my mother came into view as she too leaned forward and looked at me. I suppose I might have sensed then that something out of the ordinary was unfolding. In any case, the next moment, I was hurrying off in the direction of the kitchen. No sooner had I reached the kitchen than I heard footsteps, and my mother came in. I have 35 often tried to recall her face—the exact expression she was wearing—at that moment, but with

© 2023 Kingston Grammar School 11+ Information Evening | 46 no success. Perhaps some instinct told me not to look at it. What I do remember is her presence, which seemed looming and large, as though suddenly I were very young again, and also the texture of the pale summer frock she was wearing. She said to me in a lowered, but perfectly composed voice: “Christopher, the gentlemen with Mr. Simpson are from the police. I must 40 finish talking with them. Then I want to talk to you straight afterwards. Will you wait for me in the library?” I was about to protest, but my mother silenced me with a stare that frightened me. “In the library then,” she said, turning away. “I’ll come as soon as I’ve finished with the gentlemen.” “Has something happened to father?” I asked. 45 My mother turned back to me. “Your father never arrived at the office this morning. But I’m sure there’s a perfectly simple explanation. Wait for me in the library. I won’t be long.” Section A Please circle the correct letter(s) in response to the questions. 1.
