With a huge range of Maths practice for ages 7 to 8, plus fully explained answers to every question, this book is ideal for building up the skills children need for the 11+ and other selective entrance exams. The first section of the book focuses on one topic at a time to help children gain understanding and confidence. This is followed by six Assessment Tests to improve their speed and accuracy across a wide range of questions. And if they get stuck or go wrong, the detailed pull-out answers make it easy to understand the reasoning behind the questions. Multiple-choice answer sheets for the Assessment Tests are available to download from the CGP website. This book is ideal for the 11+ tests set by GL Assessment and other test providers, and provides excellent practice for the Kent Test. A separate edition for the CEM tests is also available.

The skills and requirements for the GCSE English language exam are very specific: retrieving information from texts, inference, analysis of language, presentational techniques and comparing texts are some of the skills needed. For writing, students are required to engage the reader and produce a response, which relates to the purpose and audience. It emphasises the P.E.E or P.E.T.E.R technique, so students have a blue print (format) to work from; make POINT, give EVIDENCE, comment on TECHNIQUE, EFFECT and RESPONSE. This helps students to develop analytical skills for non-fiction tasks and responses in English literature papers. The students are also taught to use rhetorical techniques - groups of three, speaking directly to the reader, rhetorical questions, inclusive pronouns as well as stylistic devices like similes, metaphors and high level vocabulary.
