Year 5 ISEB & Consortium VR & NVR – Weekly Course  

This weekly course is designed to help students to prepare for the challenging non-verbal and verbal-reasoning sections of the ISEB and Consortium exams, which comprise of 50% and 40% of marks available respectively. The ISEB and Consortium now both feature new and challenging question types – spatial reasoning such as cube nets, rotations of cuboids, assembling cubes and figure analysis (hole punching) – and cloze verbal reasoning such as shuffled sentences, cloze synonyms and antonyms and cloze sentence completion. It is vital to get used to these different question types, which are not fully covered by online testing platforms.

The course will teach a different verbal and non-verbal reasoning rule each week, and will aim to complete the entire syllabus of verbal and non-verbal reasoning lessons before assessment (meaning supplementary lessons are not necessary).

As well as teaching every VR and NVR rule which will be tested in the entrance exams, the sessions will be supported by a lively learning game to help keep things fun and engaging.

The course will be led by Anna Marsland and Tim Smith-Laing, hugely experienced entrance exam tutors with excellent success rate at 11+ and 13+ (helping students through to Westminster, St Paul’s, Latymer Upper, Eton, Brighton, Radley and Winchester in the past year).
