What Parents
Are Saying.
Real feedback from real families whose children prepared with 11 Ace and earned places at top grammar schools across the UK.
“We started with the free diagnostic in Year 4 and it was eye-opening. The report showed exactly where our daughter needed help. After 18 months with 11 Ace, she got a place at our first-choice grammar school. The regular updates kept us informed every step of the way.”
“My son was doing well at school but the 11 Plus is a different level entirely. 11 Ace broke everything down into manageable steps. The mock exams were particularly brilliant — by exam day, he felt like he’d already done it a dozen times. He passed comfortably.”
“We tried self-study at home for months and our son wasn’t making progress. Within the first month at 11 Ace, we could see the difference. The 1:1 sessions were perfectly tailored to his weak areas. He’s now thriving at a grammar school we never thought possible.”
