From the 11+ to a University of Birmingham Application: Why English Matters

Mastering English Language is the key that opens so many doors in Birmingham and beyond. It’s the skill that turns a tricky 11+ Verbal Reasoning question into a puzzle they can solve with confidence. It’s the ability to analyse a poem by a local hero like Benjamin Zephaniah with insight for a GCSE essay. And it’s the power to write a personal statement that stands out, making a compelling case for a place at a top university. It’s their passport to the next step, whatever that may be.
