Bond 11+ Verbal Reasoning Assessment Papers, Book 1

Verbal reasoning tests assess children’s problem solving skills when working at speed, and also test how effectively they can process information.

Verbal reasoning is not part of the National Curriculum in state primary schools, and this style of assessment may feel quite strange for children who have not seen questions framed in this way before. This is why practicing these kinds of questions at home is so important: it helps familiarize children with a style of testing that they won’t experience at school.
