Why quick mental maths helps in the 11+
11+ maths papers are timed, and many questions rely on facts children need to know instantly: times tables, number bonds, halving and doubling, and simple fractions. When these come without thinking, children have more time and energy for the harder, multi-step questions.
Short, regular bursts work well. A minute a day on the challenge keeps facts fresh, and trying to beat a personal best makes it feel like a game rather than homework. Want something calmer? Try 10 free mental maths questions with no clock and a method for every answer.
