Our successful problem solving course helps students to understand how to apply the maths concepts taught at school to solve worded maths problems. The course content is suitable for both the GL Assessment and CEM exams
[rockthemes_vertical_space vertical_space_height=”default” custom_value=”60px”/]
Strong problem solving and reasoning skills are crucial to success in the 11+/12+ and national assessments including SATS. Our problem solving course is ideal for students sitting all entrance exams including GL Assessment and CEM Durham.
Few subjects in the school curriculum are as important to the future of the nation as mathematics and as far back as 1982, The Cockcroft Report, stated: ‘The ability to solve problems is at the heart of mathematics. Mathematics is only ‘useful’ to the extent to which it can be applied to a particular situation and it is the ability to apply mathematics to a variety of situations to which owe give the name ‘problem solving’.
At Tops we teach techniques and strategies that help students develop their problem solving and reasoning skills and the course content is closely aligned to Ofsted’s suggested primary school teaching strategies and the national curriculum maths topics.
As part of the course we also cover the logic style problem solving questions which forms part of the GL 11+ exam.

Our summer classes have been designed to maintain momentum over the long summer break.
Experience has shown that without the right approach and support, some children can withdraw during the summer and become unmotivated. Our classes are all about keeping our students motivated and enthused and we will be working with each one of them to consolidate techniques, improve timing issues and tweak exam strategies where necessary. They will also have the opportunity to complete practice papers under timed conditions.
