GL Assessment writes the 11+ for most English grammar regions. Our free worksheets and mocks mirror the GL style: separate timed papers per subject, five-option multiple choice, and the full GL question-type range.
GL Assessment papers test the four classic subjects — English, Maths, Verbal Reasoning and Non-Verbal Reasoning — usually as separate timed papers with answers marked on a machine-read sheet. Questions are multiple choice with typically five options, drawn from a published range of question types (21 VR types, 20+ NVR types), which makes GL the most learnable of the boards: master the types and the paper holds no surprises.
Our worksheet library is organised around exactly those types, our 180 mocks replicate GL timing and answer-sheet format, and the Arena's practice mode drills the types with instant feedback. Start with the 21 VR types guide and the NVR types list.
Regions using GL Assessment include Kent, Buckinghamshire, Birmingham, Lincolnshire, Wirral, Slough & Reading, most Yorkshire grammars and Pate's Grammar. Check your school's profile in our directory to confirm.

No — they are original papers written by UK tutors in the GL style: same subjects, same question types, same timing and answer-sheet format. GL does not release its live papers, so realistic style-matched practice is what preparation means for every provider.
Usually five (A–E). Practising elimination technique against five options is a skill in itself — our mock papers replicate this exactly.
