We are close to closing the bookings for our upcoming Comprehension Challenge beginning in June 16th. All details here https://the11plusjourney.co.uk/product/common-question-types-comprehension-challenge/

This is a quick walk-through showing where lessons, recordings and worksheets live so parents don’t have to hunt or feel behind. I recorded this because clarity matters. If you’re already part of the programme, this will help you feel more organised. If you’re not, this simply shows how we keep things simple and calm for families.

Hello everyone, I hope the children are settled back in school following the Easter break. As mentioned in last week's session, we've had some changes to the schedule over the next few weeks. I will be taking the children for Maths this evening and the following 2 weeks (May the 1st and 8th) will be English sessions. Normal service resumes thereafter. If there is any confusion, pleas consult the Calendar tab on the Skool website. Thanks for your understanding. I'm looking forward to seeing the group tonight at 6:45pm. Speak soon, Dale -

I hope your Easter break has started well. It’s already Wednesday, and this is usually the point where things either begin to take shape… or feel a little uncertain. If you’ve already made a timetable, that’s wonderful. If you haven’t, please don’t worry, you can still start now. It doesn’t need to be perfect. It just needs to be simple and doable. A few focused sessions in the week. A clear idea of what to revise. And a little bit of consistency. That alone can make a big difference. If you do need a model timetable or a starting point, just reply to this email and I’m happy to share something with you. Also, a small note. It’s completely natural to ask around, speak to friends, and gather advice. Do that. But also take a moment to pause and ask, “Does this make sense for my child?” Not everything works for everyone. Trust yourself. And trust your child. Even if things haven’t gone as planned so far, it is never too late to reset, regroup, and move forward. Children have an incredible ability to bounce back when the environment around them feels calm and steady. And that starts with us. ⸻ P.S. A few things that parents have been asking me about recently especially great for this time of year... sharing here in case helpful * Atom Learning – I do have a discount for the first month- 10% if you’re looking for structured online practice https://atomlearning.com/p/VUlD4e56 * Creative Writing Course (with Sheena Ager) – recorded with a live critique element, and lovely feedback from parents so far. https://slagereducational.thinkific.com/?ref=6dcff4 * Reasoning Masterclass (with Dale Jenkins) – starting in 5 days, covering both VR and NVR in a very clear, structured way. https://the11plusjourney.co.uk/product/11-reasoning-holiday-mastery-classes-2-easter/ * 11+ Stress Session Replay (with Charlotte Watson) – now available with the workbook, for those who couldn’t attend live. https://the11plusjourney.co.uk/product/handle-11-stress/
