11+ practice, built by tutors
Timed tests in the GL Assessment format that mark themselves, show a worked solution for every question, and name the mistake behind every wrong answer. Created by Birmingham tutors with over 20 years of experience.
The free mock: four timed GL sections (English, verbal, maths, spatial), marked instantly, with the score shown straight away. No account needed.
Written for the West Midlands 11+, the one test used by all 19 grammar schools, including
A timed test in the browser, marked the moment it ends, with the weak topics named and every wrong answer explained.
If your child is in Year 5 now, that is September 2027. A timed test today shows which topics need the work, so the months you have go where they count, not on questions your child can already do.
Since 2023, all 19 West Midlands grammar schools use the same unified GL Assessment test. Generic national papers don't reflect this. Ours do.
Every question uses Birmingham, Walsall and Black Country contexts. Children recognise the world they're being tested in.
Correct GL Assessment question types at authentic difficulty. No surprises on exam day.
Each wrong option is traced to the specific mistake behind it, so you know exactly what to practise next.
Every question has a step-by-step worked answer and a parent teaching tip. No tutor needed.
Questions progress from Bronze to Gold difficulty. Build confidence before the exam day.
Buy once and the files arrive by email straight after payment: interactive tests for screens and a clean PDF for printing. No subscription.
Every GrammarPath test is fully interactive: timed, marked the moment it ends, with a worked solution for every question. Try three real questions below, one from each difficulty band.
On a market stall in the Bull Ring, a trader starts the day with 84 apples for sale. She sells 27 apples in the morning and 19 apples in the afternoon. How many apples does she have left at the end of the day?
A cinema at Star City has 18 rows of seats with 14 seats in each row. For a special afternoon screening, 205 tickets are sold. How many seats are empty for the screening?
A market trader at the Bullring buys a crate of 240 oranges for £50. He sells the oranges in bags of 8 for £2.50 per bag, and also pays a £5 stall fee for the day. If he sells all the oranges in bags, how much profit does he make after paying the stall fee?
Each section has its own countdown clock, just like the real exam. Children learn to manage their time before they're sitting in the exam room.
Children click their answer. Right or wrong is shown immediately with a full worked explanation. No marking by hand.
Each wrong option is traced to the specific mistake behind it, so you know what to practise next.
Every question includes a step-by-step worked answer and a tip for parents on how to explain it, no tutoring experience needed.
Open the file in any browser on laptop, tablet, or desktop. Nothing to install. Download once, use offline, use as many times as you like.

GrammarPath was created by the team behind Bright Mentors, a tuition centre based in Hockley, Birmingham. With over 20 years of experience preparing West Midlands children for the 11+ examination, we noticed a gap that no national provider was filling.
GrammarPath practice is written for the unified GL Assessment test used by all 19 West Midlands grammar schools since 2023. Every question, every passage, and every worked example reflects the world your child actually lives in.
"The parents who contact me aren't just looking for more questions: they want their child to feel confident walking into that exam room."
Everything parents ask before buying.
The GL Assessment 11+. The maths packs use the GL format, so they suit any GL 11+ in the country. Our local expertise is the 19 West Midlands grammar schools that use it, including King Edward VI schools (KEHS, Camp Hill Boys, Camp Hill Girls, Five Ways, Handsworth, Aston, Sheldon Heath, Stratford), Wolverhampton Girls' High, Walsall Grammar, Queen Mary's Grammar (Walsall), and others across Birmingham and the Black Country.

The West Midlands 11+ is sat in September, at the very start of Year 6. Most families start gently in Year 4 or early Year 5, then build up timed practice through Year 5 and the summer holiday before the test. GrammarPath practice suits Year 5 with a parent nearby, and is ideal for timed practice in the months before the exam.
Four timed sections in the GL Assessment format: English, verbal reasoning, maths and spatial reasoning. Each is marked the moment your child finishes and the score is shown straight away. Add your email to unlock the topic-by-topic breakdown and every answer, and we send you a copy. No account or payment needed.
Yes, in full, if a download does not work, you were charged twice, the pack is not as described, or you find a wrong answer in an answer key. Because packs are instant digital products, we cannot usually refund a change of mind once the files have been opened. The refund policy has the details.
The interactive tests open in any modern web browser on a laptop, desktop or tablet, and work offline once downloaded. The printable PDF works anywhere you can print.
