11+ Interview Practice Skills
£12.99
This book is both a guide and an activity workbook, helping children (and parents) to prepare for competitive 11+ interviews. It will help children to understand the process and be well-prepared (without being over rehearsed!) when entering that interview room. This book is aimed at 11+ interviews but would also be useful for any school interview between the ages of 8 and 14.

Reviews from Parents:
"A fantastic resource to help overcome the next 11+ hurdle: the dreaded interview! I also used this book for my son’s 10+ interview and it was ideal preparation. Lovely mix of advice, information and activities to boost children’s confidence and help them be suitably ready for the interview stage.”

"One of the standout features of this book is how it manages to make the daunting process of 11+ interview preparation fun (not just for my son, but for us parents too!). It prepares without overwhelming. It provides clear, step-by-step guidance on interview techniques and common questions, which help build confidence without undue stress. It’s a refreshing approach that encourages a healthy, manageable preparation process. Really recommend it, especially if, like me, you have no real idea of what you should - and shouldn’t - be doing!"
