English Masterclasses
English Masterclasses
Short three-hour courses that go deep on one thing — writing technique, comprehension, or building the sentence bank children actually use in the exam.

Term Holidays & Vacation
Courses that run across term holidays and vacation periods
Our English Masterclasses run across term holidays and school vacations — targeted at the 11+ exam, aimed at improving exam technique and maximising marks. Pair the July and August dates with Summer Momentum Classes, where we reinforce everything taught in the masterclass.
11+ Masterclass — Year 4 & 5
What the masterclass covers
English Writing & Toolkit
In the writing sessions, children build an essential toolkit they can reach for in the 11+ paper. We teach them to weave in complex grammatical structures, figurative devices and varied sentence structure — the kind of writing choices that maximise marks.
Comprehension
In comprehension, we show how to lift evidence from the text, develop inference, provide analysis, and always refer back to the original question — formalising exam technique. One comprehension paper is shared in advance and completed at home.
