How Remelia helps with the 11+
What Remelia practises for every GL plan, part by part, is on one page; this plan leaves out science, the writing and the interview. GL 11+ and 13+: what Remelia practises for 92 exams
Particular to this test
Covered
A reasoning test
Remelia reads the maths this test names as quantitative reasoning, the number part of a reasoning test, which it does not teach. Curriculum maths and English are kept up to the national standard beside the reasoning.
The last fortnight
The plan works to November of Year 6, a month inferred from the pages; until the school publishes the day for your child’s year, that date is an estimate.
Practice papers
GL-style papers in maths, English, verbal reasoning and non-verbal reasoning; a GL-style spatial reasoning paper; and the maths and English papers that need no exam.
In part
The timed mock In part

The page’s words
“we will arrange for your child to come into school and sit an informal assessment called a CAT4 (The Cognitive Abilities Test, also known as CAT4, is used to identify both a student’s academic potential and challenges. The CAT4 is divided into four categories – verbal, non-verbal, quantitative, and spatial ability.) We also have an Entrance Assessment Day each November for Primary 6 students wishing to apply for Year 7 the following year.”
