11+ Subjects Practice – Complete Learning Path for Entrance Exams
Preparing for the 11+ requires strong skills across a range of subjects, and this page brings together everything your child needs to practise effectively. Our 11+ subjects practice resources cover all four major areas of the exam — Maths, English, Verbal Reasoning (VR), and Non-Verbal Reasoning (NVR). Each subject includes topic-wise quizzes, mixed practice tests and exam-style challenges designed to build confidence, accuracy and exam-speed.
Maths
Our Maths section offers structured practice across key topics such as arithmetic, fractions, decimals, measurement, shapes and word problems. Students can work through skills step-by-step before attempting timed 10-minute and 20-minute tests that simulate real exam conditions.
English
English practice includes comprehension tests, vocabulary development, SPAG challenges, and short-passage questions. Students can explore a variety of reading extracts — fiction, non-fiction and poetry — while improving inference, deduction and evaluation skills.
For extra vocabulary support, you can also use the BBC Learning English vocabulary section (external link), which is a great free resource.
Verbal Reasoning (VR)
The VR section focuses on logic, patterns, sequences, word relationships and deductive reasoning. These quizzes help strengthen problem-solving skills that are essential for CEM, GL and independent school exams. Students can practise at their own pace with both timed and untimed options.
Non-Verbal Reasoning (NVR)
NVR practice covers shapes, rotations, matrices, codes, similarities and differences. These visual reasoning quizzes help children recognise patterns quickly and improve spatial awareness — key skills tested in many grammar school entrance exams.
Start With Any Subject
You can begin from any subject and follow your own learning path. Each section includes clear topic lists, explanations and progressive challenges, making it easy for students and tutors to track improvement over time.

To help families prepare confidently for 11+ entrance exams, TestLife aligns its quizzes and practice tests closely with the style and structure used in major exam boards such as GL Assessment. While our platform offers comprehensive topic-wise practice, mixed tests, SPAG tasks, comprehension passages, verbal and non-verbal reasoning exercises, and timed challenges designed for real exam improvement, some parents also like to review the official familiarisation questions provided by the exam board itself.
For this purpose, GL Assessment publishes a small selection of sample questions to help students understand the general format. These materials are not full practice papers, but they can be used alongside TestLife’s extensive collection for a complete and well-rounded preparation plan.
You can access the official GL familiarisation questions here:

Using both the official GL samples and our detailed quizzes builds confidence, strengthens exam technique, and ensures children experience a wide variety of question types before test day.
