Why Families in Bloxwich Choose 11 Plus Tuition
As competition for Grammar School places across the West Midlands continues to grow, many parents in Bloxwich seek specialist 11 Plus support. Most families contact us for one or more of the following reasons:
Why 11 Plus Preparation Matters for Bloxwich Families
As members of the West Midlands Grammar Schools partnership, Queen Mary’s Grammar School and Queen Mary’s High School share the GL Assessment entrance test with selective schools throughout Birmingham, Shropshire, Walsall, Warwickshire and Wolverhampton. For families in Bloxwich, preparing for this common assessment opens opportunities across multiple Grammar Schools.
Families seeking selective education often consider Queen Mary’s Grammar School for boys, where 180 Year 7 places are available each year. Girls may apply to Queen Mary’s High School, a fully selective school that admits its entire intake based on academic performance, with 150 places available in Year 7.
Children sitting the West Midlands Grammar Schools Entrance Test receive an age-standardised combined score, with English and Verbal Reasoning making up 50% of the overall result and Maths and Non-Verbal Reasoning contributing 25% each. Strong performance across every assessed subject is therefore just as important as excelling in any single area.
Competition for a place at Queen Mary’s Grammar School is strong each year. As the number of applicants often exceeds the school’s available Year 7 places, families should be aware that admissions are subject to the published oversubscription criteria once the qualifying standard has been met.
Because scoring is entirely comparative rather than based on hitting a set number, families in Bloxwich need their child performing at their absolute strongest on exam day; there is no fixed target to simply clear.

Registration for the West Midlands Grammar Schools test, set by GL Assessment, ahead of September 2027 entry, has now closed.

How a Bloxwich Student Improved Their 11 Plus Preparation
After an initial assessment, one Bloxwich student joined our Year 4 programme with strong Maths foundations but needing additional support in Non-Verbal Reasoning and timed comprehension. Over the following two years, structured lessons, realistic mock examinations and continuous feedback helped her build the confidence, accuracy and exam technique required for the West Midlands Grammar Schools Entrance Test.
11 Plus Maths
Our Maths sessions build genuine problem-solving skills rather than relying on repetition alone. Students work through number topics, algebraic thinking, geometry, and data handling, learning to set out their working clearly and check answers methodically, habits that reduce careless slips when every mark affects a child’s rank-order position.
11 Plus English
Our English and Verbal Reasoning programme helps children develop the language skills needed for the West Midlands Grammar Schools Entrance Test. Lessons focus on comprehension, inference, spelling, punctuation and clear written responses, supported by systematic vocabulary building through synonyms, antonyms, prefixes and root words.
11 Plus Verbal Reasoning
Children strengthen their Verbal Reasoning skills by practising the pattern-based and coded question types used in GL Assessment tests. Lessons include analogies, sequences, word relationships and code-breaking activities, supported by regular timed exercises to improve speed and consistency.
11 Plus Non-Verbal Reasoning
Success in Non-Verbal Reasoning relies on recognising visual patterns and logical relationships instead of recalling classroom knowledge. Our online lessons provide step-by-step guidance on rotations, reflections, matrices, coded diagrams, spatial reasoning and pattern transformations, helping pupils improve both accuracy and confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where can my child get online 11 Plus tuition in Bloxwich?
Families in Bloxwich can access specialist live online 11 Plus tuition through Adnan Khan Tutoring. Designed for Year 3 to Year 5 pupils, our programme develops the knowledge, reasoning skills and exam technique needed for success in the West Midlands Grammar Schools Entrance Test.
What score does my child need to qualify for Walsall Grammar School from Bloxwich?
Neither Queen Mary’s Grammar School nor Queen Mary’s High School publishes a fixed pass mark. Places are offered strictly in rank order of age-standardised score, so a child’s result is judged against every other candidate rather than against a set threshold.
How is the West Midlands 11 Plus structured?
GL Assessment produces the test, which consists of two multiple-choice papers, each roughly 50 to 60 minutes long, including instructions and sample questions. Together they assess Verbal Reasoning, Non-Verbal Reasoning and Mathematics.
Does a strong score guarantee a place at Queen Mary's Grammar School or Queen Mary's High School?
No. Neither school has a defined catchment area, so a qualifying score simply places a child in the ranking. If a school is oversubscribed, priority goes first to looked-after children, then those eligible for the Pupil Premium, before remaining places are allocated purely by score.
When should my child start 11 Plus tuition in Bloxwich?
We recommend beginning in Year 3 or Year 4, giving enough time to build genuine competence across Maths, English, Verbal Reasoning and Non-Verbal Reasoning well before the Year 6 test date.
Is online 11 Plus tuition effective for Grammar School preparation?
Yes. Live online lessons combined with structured feedback, regular homework and timed mock practice give students full exam preparation without any need to travel.
Do you run 11 Plus mock exams?
Yes. We provide full-length, timed mock exams that mirror the GL Assessment format used by the West Midlands Grammar Schools consortium, helping students build technique, timing and confidence under real exam conditions.
