Description
What makes Owl 8+ English papers different?
Owl Tutors 8+ English papers are bespoke. They are written by an examiner with experience of marking 8+ English papers for both occasional and standard entry to Year 4 in top independent schools.
They are created to provide a practice set of papers for independent schools which use comprehension and creative writing at 8+ to set entrance assessments. They can also be used to prepare for entry to any selective school at 8+.
What types of questions are in 8+ English papers?
8+ is not usually a standard entry point for schools so 8+ English will take a variety of forms. These papers aim to cover all potential aspects of the assessment. Some 8+ assessments will include creative writing, and some transactional or personal writing. All will include comprehension in either short or long answer form. Most schools do not publish information about 8+ exams, so these papers provide a useful and insightful form of preparation.
Who can use Owl Tutors 8+ English papers?
They can be used independently for at-home preparation or with a tutor to foster success at 8+. Parents and carers should find them easy to use as a mark scheme is included.
