Bringing Fairness Back: How Club 11 Plus Aims to Level the Grammar School Playing Field
Mar 6
At Club 11 Plus, we’re not just passionate about maths, English, verbal reasoning, and non-verbal reasoning - we’re also passionate about why we do what we do.
As a team of self-confessed 11 Plus boffins, we know that grammar schools were originally created to provide bright children - no matter their background - with the opportunity to access a top-quality education.
Grammar schools were designed to open doors. Whether a child came from a wealthy family or a low-income household, the 11 Plus test was meant to give everyone a fair shot. All you needed was ability and potential.
But over time, things have changed.
Today, families who can afford expensive private tutors often have an advantage. Weekly tutoring sessions, mock exams, and costly materials can quickly add up, leaving many parents feeling that grammar school entry is out of reach for their child. And for the families who can’t afford tutoring? Well, the odds become much harder.
At Club 11 Plus, we don't think it should be like that! And that's why we’ve created an affordable, flexible, and high-quality way to prepare for the 11 Plus test - whether your child is working towards grammar school entry in maths, English, verbal reasoning, or non-verbal reasoning. Our online school is packed with hundreds of carefully designed lessons and thousands of quiz questions (yes, we’ve loved writing every single one). And with a cost of just £19.99 per month, we’re making it possible for families to get expert support at a fraction of the price of traditional tuition.
There’s even a 1-week free trial and no minimum term - because we know life is busy, and commitments should be flexible.
We can't promise your child a grammar school place, but we can promise to help your child do their very best, wherever they’re starting from.
The original purpose of grammar schools was to give every child an equal opportunity. At Club 11 Plus, we're working hard to level the playing field.
