Practice material and real exams, side by side

2018 11+ past paper skills and sources

Practice material read

Practice material published in 2018, kept separate from papers children actually sat in 2018. The two are never mixed, because they answer different questions.

What this page can and cannot tell you

Every skill here was read off the paper itself, question by question, from a copy we can link you to. 10 papers are still queued for a second read. Those are kept out of the year-by-year exam comparisons. We may not hold every paper a school has published, and nothing here predicts what the next exam will ask.

Practice material published in 2018

Booklets, sample papers and practice books published or listed in 2018. Each paper counts once, so a single thick practice book cannot dominate. This describes what was on offer that year, not what any school asked in the exam.

Year-wide skill trends are still withheld

These paper profiles are useful individually, but the complete eligible 2018 corpus has not qualified. No year-wide share or trend line is published until the remaining papers are classified or explicitly resolved.

Actual past-paper sources and archive records for 2018

Secondary catalog navigation for 7 dated documents. These records show source availability only and do not supply missing skill values. Providers: Sevenoaks School, The King's School, Chester, The Manchester Grammar School.

Questions parents ask

Do easy, medium, and hard show how pupils performed?

No. They are calibrated content-demand bands for a prepared 11+ learner, based on the inspected question. They are not cohort success rates, age-standardised scores, pass marks, or predictions about a child.

Do these skill histories show what will be in the next 11+ exam?

No. Every published line describes an atomic skill mapped from independently scorable response items in the available assessment forms. Dashed lines are provisional taxonomy classifications and never drive directional signals. No line predicts a future exam or represents independent human review.

What does the year mean?

The page keeps two meanings separate. Public resources are grouped by their catalog or publication year. Actual exam trends use only a sitting year supported by explicit source evidence. A catalog year never fills a missing sitting-year value.

Are sample papers included?

Sample, specimen, familiarisation, and practice papers appear only in the separately labelled public-resource publication mix. They never enter actual sitting-year exam evidence. Undated records and KS2 SATs are excluded from both 11+ year views.
