Parents searching for The Cedars 11+ past papers usually want two things at once: a realistic sense of the exam, and a way to practise under time without guessing which topics matter. The Cedars sits in West London, and the entrance process is built around The Cedars School own 11+ specimen assessments.. In practice that means English and Maths specimen papers for selective boys’ day-school entry., delivered as Confirm current timings with The Cedars; our set mirrors published specimen papers.. Our catalogue lists the The Cedars papers we hold with free question sheets and paid worked answers, marking and topic reports — so you can see which skills are actually costing marks rather than relying on a single overall score. Use the format notes below as orientation, then confirm dates on the school site: Register via The Cedars admissions; deadlines are published on thecedarsschool.org.uk each year. Assessments are typically held in Year 6. Offers follow the school’s published admissions timetable. On scoring: The Cedars does not publish a single pass mark; selection is based on the entrance process. The best preparation pattern is short, timed papers with a review of wrong and slow questions the same day. Rotate English and Maths so pacing stays fresh, and keep a simple log of topics that keep reappearing in the report. That turns a pile of papers into a plan tailored to The Cedars rather than generic 11+ worksheets. Families who mark papers question-by-question — noting confidence and timing — spot careless slips versus genuine gaps much faster, which is exactly what selective schools reward on exam day. Timed practice with immediate marking is more useful than collecting unread PDFs: after each paper, list the three topics that lost the most marks and drill those before the next attempt. Keep registration and exam dates on a shared calendar so preparation intensity rises in the final six to eight weeks rather than in a last-minute scramble.

Papers help pupils rehearse The Cedars-style English and Maths under timed conditions.
