11+ Mock Exams

Why choose Kip McGrath Billericay for your 11+ mock exams?

Our 2025 11+ mock exams have now been organised. They are a crucial part of the 11+ preparation, giving your child an opportunity to experience what it will be like on the day of the exam. For most children, the 11+ is the first time that they will experience exam conditions, and this can be incredibly daunting.  Our exams our open to both Kip students and Non-Kip students.

The mock exams let them experience what it is like sitting an exam in a high school, with an invigilator, up against the clock. It is amazing how nerves can affect a child’s performance and taking mock exams will help eliminate any anxious feelings they are having.

With over 17 years of experience as 11+ specialists, we understand the critical role mock exams play in your child’s success in the 11+ process. Our mock exams are expertly tailored to reflect the level and expectations of the actual 11+ exam, serving as essential checkpoints to help set realistic and achievable goals for your child.

At Kip McGrath Wickford and Billericay, we provide both in-person and online mock exams for Year 5 students. These exams are designed to give your child an authentic experience of the 11+ entrance exam. Each year, our team of qualified tutors conducts thorough research into the format, content, and conditions of the 11+ exams, ensuring that our mock exams accurately replicate the real thing.

How do the exams work?

All of our exams are currently held at The Billericay School. Morning exams will start promptly at 9.30am, we therefore request that your child is ready to enter the exam hall by 9.15am. The morning exam session will then be finished by 12 noon.  Afternoon sessions will begin at 1.30pm, therefore afternoon registration will begin at 1.15pm and the exam session will end at 4pm.

CSSE 11+ mock exams: This exam is used for entrance into Grammar schools that are part of The Consortium for Selective Schools in Essex. Your child will complete 2 papers (one English and one maths).  The tests are set out in the same format and are under the same time constraints as the CSSE 11+ exam. Our expertise enables us to deliver the most effective and realistic 11+ mock exam experience available.

FSCE 11+ mock exams: This exam board is used for the 11+ exam to gain entry into Chelmsford High School for Girls (CCHS). There are 3 papers for this exam.  Each paper is broken down into timed sections and all results need to be recorded on an answer sheet (this is very different from the CSSE exam).

After each event, you will receive your child’s marked papers along with a detailed results summary which will include comparative scores with their peers. This feedback provides valuable insights into your child’s performance compared to their peers and highlights areas where their 11+ preparation can be fine-tuned for maximum success.

Students attending our centre will be able to work through their papers further in their Kip sessions.  Non-Kip exam students can book in to attend additional Kip sessions to be able to work through their paper.
For further information, please see our 11+ mock exams FAQ's.

What is the cost?

Each exam is £50. This includes sitting the exam in exam conditions, copies of the marked exam papers and comparative cohort data.
