11+ Creative Writing Service

11+ Letter Writing Pack

Formal and informal letters, with the register and layout conventions examiners expect. Every pack is self-contained: task sheets, planning frameworks, exemplar responses and an optional marking add-on so a tutor reads the final piece and returns a banded report.

A timed creative writing practice paper and planning notes
