Prepare for the school you want, in the way it actually tests

Every school sets its own assessment. Akiru's free guides explain how each London and home-counties school assesses, with the dates and sources. Our printable prep packs follow each school's own format: City of London School 11+ mock papers are on sale now.

How Akiru works

Three steps, in order

  1. Read your school's guide

    Entry points, what each paper covers, timings, interviews and the key dates for the current year. Free, and checked against the school's own website.

  2. Join that school's waitlist

    We'll email you when a prep pack for that school is ready, and if the school changes its dates or format.

  3. Practise in the school's format

    Printable mock papers with the same sections and timings, mark schemes and worked solutions. Every question, answer and mark scheme is reviewed and validated before it goes on sale.
