Important update from TheSchoolRun
For the past 13 years, TheSchoolRun has been run by a small team of mums working from home, dedicated to providing quality educational resources to primary school parents. Unfortunately, rising supplier costs and falling revenue have made it impossible for us to continue operating, and we’ve had to make the difficult decision to close. The good news: We’ve arranged for another educational provider to take over many of our resources. These will be hosted on a new portal, where the content will be updated and expanded to support your child’s learning.
What this means for subscribers:
- Your subscription is still active, and for now, you can keep using the website as normal — just log in with your usual details to access all our articles and resources*.
- In a few months, all resources will move to the new portal. You’ll continue to have access there until your subscription ends. We’ll send you full details nearer the time.
- As a thank you for your support, we’ll also be sending you 16 primary school eBooks (worth £108.84) to download and keep.
A few changes to be aware of:
- The Learning Journey weekly email has ended, but your child’s plan will still be updated on your dashboard each Monday. Just log in to see the recommended worksheets.
- The 11+ weekly emails have now ended. We sent you all the remaining emails in the series at the end of March — please check your inbox (and spam folder) if you haven’t seen them. You can also follow the full programme here: 11+ Learning Journey.
If you have any questions, please contact us at [email protected]. Thank you for being part of our journey it’s been a privilege to support your family’s learning.
*If you need to reset your password, it will still work as usual. Please check your spam folder if the reset email doesn’t appear in your inbox.
11+ Learning Journey
How to get started on the 11+ Learning Journey
In order to cover all the skills that your child will have to master by the time they sit the 11+ test (in the autumn term of Year 6) either work through the worksheets below in order or pick those worksheets that cover topics where you know your child needs some extra help.
There is a downloadable 11+ Learning Journey checklist to help you keep track of your progress.
You can also receive a weekly email, which includes recommended exercises in all four disciplines and tips and tricks from 11+ experts. To join this (subscriber-only) mailing list email [email protected]
From a beginner's guide to the 11+ and an 11+ glossary for parents to detailed explanations of verbal reasoning, non-verbal reasoning, Cloze tests, CEM and GL Assessment papers and more, you'll also find lots of articles and information to help you support your child's preparation in our 11+ section.
The 11+ is administered differently in each area where it's used, and the test itself will be produced specifically for that area or group of schools. Our parents' guides to each 11+ area give you a detailed overview of what you need to know about the test in the area where you live.
Good luck!
