Free 11+ Diagnostic
Your child answers 20 questions across Maths, Reading, Verbal Reasoning and Non-Verbal Reasoning. Allow around 10–20 minutes. We’ll email you the results and a suggestion for what to practise next.
No payment details are needed, and taking the diagnostic does not start a subscription. Try a sample question first.
First, your email
Parents and guardians: enter your email below. We’ll send you a code to confirm the address, then your child can begin. Their result will go to that same inbox. If the code doesn’t arrive, check your spam or junk folder.
The verification code expires after 15 minutes. The result shows how many answers were right. It does not rank your child against other children or predict a school place.
Try a question first
Four examples made for this page, with answers you can open when you’re ready. They are not Diagnostic questions, and nothing here is scored or saved. They show a few question types, not the full range of difficulty.
A small cinema has 28 seats. Three quarters of them are occupied. How many people are sitting down?
A: 7 B: 14 C: 21 D: 24
C: 21 people. One quarter of 28 is 7. Three quarters is three lots of 7: 21. Find one part first, then take the number of parts you need.
Noah tore open the envelope. He read the first line, stopped, then read it again. A grin spread across his face. He held the letter above his head and ran into the kitchen.
How does Noah probably feel at the end?
A: Pleased B: Bored C: Disappointed D: Frightened
A: Pleased. His grin and the way he runs to share the letter suggest good news. “Probably” matters: we are using clues in the writing, rather than being told exactly how he feels.
Which word is closest in meaning to reluctant?
A: Tired B: Unwilling C: Careless D: Hasty
B: Unwilling. If you are reluctant to do something, you do not really want to do it. Try swapping the words in a sentence: “He was reluctant to go” becomes “He was unwilling to go.”
Each arrow turns a quarter-turn clockwise. Which arrow comes next?
B: Left. Up turns to right, right turns to down, and down turns to left. Keep the direction and size of each turn the same.

Children get questions wrong for all sorts of reasons. They might not know something. They might not recognise the question type. They might rush. They might simply have a bad five minutes.
One short Diagnostic cannot distinguish all of those perfectly. So we don't pretend it can.
