Building the skills needed for Grammar School entrance examinations, including Calday Grange Grammar School, West Kirby Grammar School, Wirral Grammar School for Boys, Wirral Grammar School for Girls, St Anselm’s College and Upton Hall School FCJ, takes time, consistency and expert guidance. Our online programme combines high-quality teaching with carefully planned practice, enabling children in Year 3, Year 4 and Year 5 throughout the CH42 postcode area to improve academic understanding while developing examination confidence and reasoning ability.
Learning from home also provides greater flexibility for Rock Ferry families, allowing tuition to fit comfortably alongside school, sports clubs and other weekly activities.
Why Rock Ferry Families Choose 11 Plus Tuition
Selective entrance assessments often include reasoning questions that differ significantly from those encountered during everyday classroom learning. Specialist tuition introduces these question styles gradually, allowing children to become familiar with them well before the examination.
Why Early Preparation Benefits Rock Ferry
Beginning preparation during Year 3 or Year 4 gives children sufficient time to strengthen their academic foundations while becoming increasingly comfortable with Grammar School examination techniques before Year 6. Gradual progress also helps improve confidence, accuracy and time management.
Families living in Rock Ferry have access to several selective schools through the Wirral Grammar School admissions process. For September 2027 Year 7 entry, Wirral Grammar School for Boys offers 170 places, while Calday Grange Grammar School has a Published Admission Number (PAN) of 210. Admission to both schools is subject to each school’s published admissions arrangements and selective entry requirements.
If a place becomes available after the initial allocation, it will be offered to a child on the waiting list. Any available place is allocated according to the school’s published admissions arrangements, with priority determined by the school’s admissions and oversubscription criteria rather than the date a child joined the waiting list.
The 11 Plus entrance assessment is provided by Quest Assessments and is scheduled for Tuesday 15 September 2026. Pupils complete two papers on the same day, covering Verbal Reasoning, Non-Verbal Reasoning and Mathematics.
A well-planned preparation programme helps pupils approach these competitive entrance examinations with the knowledge and confidence needed to perform at their best.

How a Rock Ferry Student Improved During 11 Plus Preparation
