GULLIFORD TUTORS
Expert-led 11+ and FSCE revision books
Gulliford Tutors publishes carefully structured revision books for parents and professional tutors preparing children for 11+ and FSCE-style grammar school entrance exams.
Our books are written by an experienced educator with deep familiarity with how these exams are constructed. They are designed to help families and tutors focus on a particular part of the 11+ test which is weak and give the repeat practice needed to gain the skill, knowledge and strategies needed to succeed in it.
WRITTEN WITH EXAM UNDERSTANDING
Written with exam understanding, not guesswork
Many 11+ revision books focus on a variety of skill areas within each book. They may have numerous practice books covering these areas which becomes confusing for parents who are unsure which to pick. Ours are different. Our books have been created from real need to find practice books that give repeated practice in a specific 11+ skill. All practice tests have been written with a solid understanding of the level of knowledge needed and tested on our students so we are confident they have the desired effect. Our range is easy for parents to navigate and choose.
Each book is structured around the specific skills, question styles, and behaviours that appear in all real 11+ and FSCE-aligned exams. The emphasis is on clarity, progression, and purposeful practice, so preparation feels focused rather than overwhelming.
BROWSE BY PREPARATION FOCUS
Gulliford Tutors publishes a structured range, organised by exam purpose
Our revision books are grouped to reflect how effective preparation actually works, rather than how retail catalogues are organised. Parents and tutors can explore the range by preparation focus:
FSCE Practice Papers
Full papers designed to replicate exam structure and conditions, used at the right stage of preparation.
Verbal Reasoning
Targeted practice that develops the specific reasoning skills these questions assess.
Maths and Skills
Exam-focused maths practice that goes beyond school curriculum coverage to address speed, accuracy, and method choice.
Each section explains what that area of preparation is for, when it is best used, and how it fits into a wider plan.
WHY PARENTS TRUST THE BOOKS
Designed for real use, not generic revision
01
Parents at home
Written to be used by parents working with their child at home.
02
Professional tutors
Used by professional tutors in one-to-one or small group settings.
03
Structured preparation

They are not score-chasing tools. The focus is on understanding, confidence, and readiness built through appropriate focused repeated practice.
"Would I change anything? Yes! I would definitely have bought and used all of your books earlier. We had several other recommended books and "hand-me-downs," but while they were useful learning tools, they didn’t prepare him for the specific format of the FSCE exam. Given our busy family life, "cracking on" with your books earlier would have yielded even better results in less time"
- K Neal, preparing for grammar school entry
FOR EDUCATION PROFESSIONALS
Suitable for professional teaching contexts
Although written to be accessible for families, the books are also used by tutors who need materials that behave predictably in lessons and reflect real exam demands.
Guidance on tutor use and sequencing is available separately for education professionals.
"I have been an 11+ tutor for over 20 years now and bulk buy the colourful practice books/ practice papers each year to pass onto my students. Whenever schools change their exam requirements Gulliford tutors are always fast to react and revise their books to keep them relevant and at the correct level."
