“Hi, Nick,

Long-time user of your priceless past paper collection here. Just wanted to say thank you for putting this all together — it truly is a phenomenal resource for assessment. And as a tutor/teacher/human myself, I’ve used the past papers as a fall-back more times than I’d necessarily like to admit!

Keep up the brilliant work on all fronts,

Sam”

    Hi Nick, do you have past papers for GL or CEM 11plus exams and more specifically for Gloucestershire exams
    Thanks

    1. Nick Dale Post author

      At 11+ level, I have a CEM online English, Maths and Reasoning familiarisation test and two ‘CEM-style’ tests (with answers) produced by a third party.
      I also have two English, six Maths, seven Non-verbal Reasoning and nine Verbal Reasoning papers produced by GL Assessment.

      1. vikshi

        can you please clarify if these were previous test papers or sample papers for CEM and GL which aren’t used for real exams?

      2. Nick Dale Post author

        The CEM papers are sample papers, but the GL papers were taken from the actual schools’ websites. It’s up to the schools to decide which 11+ papers they use, and it’s impossible to say for certain without contacting them individually.

    Hi do you have Latymer grammar past papers? There are 2 years available on their site, hoping to access more.

    1. Nick Dale Post author

      If you mean The Latymer School, I’m afraid I only have the 2019 11+ English paper. Sorry…

    Hi, Do you have ISEB 11+ Maths, English and Science papers and if yes which years do you have them for? Do you have the mark scheme too? Thanks

    1. Nick Dale Post author

      Yes, I have English papers from 2006-10; Maths papers from 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2016 (with mark scheme); and a Science paper from 2018 (with mark scheme).

    1. Nick Dale Post author

      Sorry, but I’m afraid they just aren’t available. There are plenty for GCSE and A-level papers, but only about 10% of the entrance exams have them.

    Hi Nick,
    I need the 11+ English test papers of City of London School for Girls. How many papers of those you have and for what years?
    Thank you.

    1. Nick Dale Post author

      Sorry, but I’ve only just seen your comment. I’m in Africa, so I’m a bit cut off! I have three 11+ English papers from City of London School for Girls (current, 2010 and 2008) plus a few Maths ones.

      Yes, I have three Maths and English papers from St George’s and 16 from KCS Wimbledon. I also have a Maths paper from Hampton Court House, but I think you mean Hampton School.

    Hi Nic – do you have the Merchant Taylor’s 11+ paper for 2020? It was online and parents had to print it at home. I’m trying to track it down for practise.

    Reply ↓
      1. Nick Dale Post author

        Sorry, I’ve been away for the last two weeks. Just search for ‘mark scheme’ or ‘answers’ in your browser using Control+F or Command+F. However, only around 10% of all papers have mark schemes available, I’m afraid.

  8. Eva Boros

    Hello. Would you please let me know if there is a way to find the answer sheets to the test papers? Thank you.

      I’ve uploaded all the answers I can find, but they’re only available for around 20% of the papers, I’m afraid. Sorry…

        That’s unfortunate, but by any chance do you have IGCSE CIE Chemistry 2021

        Sorry, no. I have plenty of CIE IGCSE Chemistry papers, but not for 2021.

      1. Nick Dale Post author

        Yes, there are a few hundred on my site in all subjects, and around 10% have mark schemes/answers.

    Hi Nick, quick question for you. We are preparing for the Winchester Challenge exams this year. They have 2016 and 2017 on their website. Do you have other years, especially in Maths and English? Thank you!! Great resource

    1. Nick Dale Post author

      Yes, about 10% of the papers have published answers. You just need to search for ‘answers’ or ‘mark scheme’ in your browser (Ctrl-F or Cmd-F).

    Hello please do you have ISEB common entrance past papers from 2015 to 2020 – ideally for Maths and English.
    Would you also have the mark schemes if these are available.
    I’d be happy to then subscribe.
    Thank you

    1. Nick Dale Post author

      Yes, I have 2017 Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Science papers and mark schemes and Maths Level 1, 2 and 3 papers for 2015, but all the others are for previous years, I’m afraid.

    Quick question: I count 49 schools on your list; is that an exhaustive list of the school papers you provide? Thanks

    Reply ↓
    1. Nick Dale Post author

      I don’t know which list you’re talking about, but the one on the Past Papers page of my website has 89 sources, including schools and organisations such as ISEB.

      1. wendy so

        Sorry the list you have here on this page, there were only 49 schools so I was confused. Thank you!! One last question please: How far back in time do you have papers for Haberdasher Aske boys school? Thanks Nick!!

      2. Nick Dale Post author

        It varies by subject and level, but the earliest Haberdashers’ Aske’s paper is from 2009.

      They’re all collected from school websites and other publicly available sources. Where available, I’ve also uploaded the answers or mark scheme.

    Are there any answers available for the 11+ Verbal Reasoning Test 1 to Test 5?

      Sorry, but I’ve published all the available answers. All you can do is ask me to mark them for you, but that would cost £70 an hour.

    1. Nick Dale Post author

      Yes, I update the latest paper for all the schools every year and find a few more, so the total number went up from around 1,700 to over 2,000 in the last few months alone.
