Langley Grammar School 11+ - exam format & mock papers
Langley Grammar School selects through the shared Slough Consortium test: two 50-minute multiple-choice papers, Verbal Skills (English & Verbal Reasoning) then Mathematical & Non-Verbal Skills, each answer chosen from five options (A-E). A 11Plus-Help mock for Langley rebuilds that exact two-paper shape at consortium standard.

The papers
One test day, two 50-minute multiple-choice papers.
Paper 1 - Verbal Skills (English & Verbal Reasoning) - 50 minutes
- English: comprehension with retrieval, inference and vocabulary in context
- Verbal Reasoning: GL-style types - synonyms, antonyms, letter and word codes, sequences, logic
Paper 2 - Mathematical & Non-Verbal Skills - 50 minutes
- Maths: KS2 number, fractions/decimals/percentages, ratio, algebra, geometry, statistics - multi-step worded
- Non-Verbal Reasoning: figure series, matrices, analogies, odd-one-out, codes
What it tests
English comprehension · Verbal Reasoning · Maths · Non-Verbal Reasoning
What to work on
- reading a passage closely for inference, not just retrieval
- vocabulary in context - the distractors are near-synonyms
- multi-step worded maths under time pressure (about a minute a question)
- the full spread of GL verbal and non-verbal types, done to a rhythm
Worth knowing
- Five answer options (A-E), not four.
- No extended writing at this stage - it is entirely multiple choice.
- Standard is intermediate-to-hard: accuracy and pace both matter.
