11+ Creative Writing Service

11+ Story Writing Pack

Story tasks are the most common 11+ writing question, so this pack drills a repeatable narrative shape. 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

Course outline

  1. Session 01

    What examiners want from story writing

    How examiners reward shape and control: one clear idea, a strong opening image and a resolved ending.

  2. Session 02

    Model responses

    Two exemplar story writing pieces, one a solid pass and one top band, annotated so the difference is visible.

  3. Session 03

    Guided practice tasks

    Four graded story writing tasks with planning frameworks pupils can reuse in the exam room.

  4. Session 04

    Timed task and marking

    A final task written to exam timing, returned with line-by-line marking and a banded score.

By the end

  • Confidence with story writing under exam timing
  • A reusable planning framework for this question type
