Baljeet Dogra, founder of KidSmart, created an app with the intention of supporting parents and their children through these difficult times. The app includes learning materials such as <a href=\"https:\/\/kidsmartapp.co.uk\/11-plus-practice-papers\"><strong>11 plus practice papers<\/strong><\/a> with over 350 past papers and learning app modules like <a href=\"https:\/\/kidsmartapp.co.uk\/11-plus-vocabulary\"><strong>11 plus vocabulary<\/strong><\/a> support from tutors to assist families with the 11 plus exam.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWe encourage parents to start early, if possible, as early as year 3 to give ample time to your child to prepare and to avoid putting a lot of pressure if you start late. 11 plus preparation requires building a lot of skills that require some time to master. When you start early you get plenty of time to take it slow and steady without the need to stress.\u201d, <\/em>said Baljeet.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kidsmartapp.co.uk\/\"><strong>KidSmart<\/strong><\/a> was founded from Baljeet\u2019s own experience in preparing her daughter for the 11 plus exam. He recognized the necessity for having a platform where pupils can learn remotely, giving them time to relax and enjoy.<\/p>\n<p>Parents and tutors, including Baljeet, are appealing to suspend the exam. He stated, \u201c<em>I<\/em> agree with most parents and tutors alike that the 11 plus exams should be called off during the pandemic. In general, it should be abandoned as a requirement from most <em>schools.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>While exam suspensions are yet to be finalized, KidSmart will continue to provide services to make it easier for parents and students to tackle 11 plus exams and the stress that comes with it.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/evertise.net\/why-many-believe-11-plus-exams-are-unfair\/\">\u201cWhy Many believe 11 plus exams are unfair\u201d<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/evertise.net\/\">Evertise<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span><\/span>Education photo created by pressfoto &ndash; www.freepik.com Besides the fact that standardized tests are not so child-centered, many parents and school leaders are concerned about the gap among students from different social classes.
