We asked parents to share how their children performed in the 11+ exam.
Their responses are full of honest reflections, practical advice, and evidence that the right support makes all the difference.
Find out what worked for them and get inspired for your own 11+ journey!
Every year, around 100,000+ children sit the 11+. With an estimated national pass rate of around 30%, it’s a huge challenge for families across the country.
In 2025, 77% of Atom Learners received an eligible 11+ score for their top-choice school.
Behind that number are children building confidence one step at a time, and families turning hard work into progress.
The 11+ is tough, but with the right support it’s absolutely achievable. Atom provides the structure, motivation, and clarity that make success possible, helping every child turn potential into results.
Take it from parents who’ve been there, starting early makes all the difference.
Atom adapts to your child’s 11+ goals, creating a personalised revision plan to ensure they cover all the topics that will appear on their target school’s exam.
It identifies weaker areas early and provides extra practice where it’s needed most, helping every child build confidence step by step.
With clear progress tracking, you’ll always know how to help – and when to step back.
Atom’s unlimited mock tests provide children with the most realistic 11+ experience possible, mirroring the exact format, timing, and question styles of the real exam.
Every test builds familiarity and confidence, so that there are no surprises on exam day. With detailed performance insights after every test, your child can see exactly where to focus next.
Joella isn’t alone.
