11+ tutoring for Essex grammar schools
The Essex grammar schools (Southend, Westcliff, Chelmsford and Colchester) test through the CSSE consortium: written English and maths papers with a continuous writing task, not multiple choice.

Common questions
Is the Essex 11+ different from other grammar tests?＋
Yes, in format: CSSE schools set written papers rather than multiple choice, including creative writing. Children used only to GL-style drilling need explicit practice writing full maths methods and sustained compositions.
We are in Wickford - which schools can we target?＋
Most CSSE grammars accept cross-area applications; distance criteria vary by school. Tell us your shortlist at booking and the plan follows each school's format and the CSSE timetable.
