Method

1. We started from each test's official admissions or test page and followed only the links it gives to practice or familiarisation material.
2. We opened or downloaded every file on 27 September 2026 and recorded what it contains: a real past paper, familiarisation, sample questions, or a paid product; and whether it has answers.
3. A resource is matched to a test only where that test's own page points to it. Where a school says it releases nothing, we show its own words instead of a substitute.
4. We link to the publisher's copy. Nothing is copied or re-hosted.

Uncertainty and limits

• Publishers replace files each year; a link can move. Every card names its source page and the day we checked it.
• Kent County Council's site refused our automated check on 27 September 2026, so the Kent card links to its preparation page as read on 23 September 2026.
• Familiarisation shows the format and question types. It is not a guide to the difficulty of this year's paper.

Dates and versions

• Official 11+ and 13+ past papers, familiarisation materials and sample questions, by test: data version 2026-09-27.1, checked 27 September 2026.
• Page last changed 27 September 2026.

What the answer means

The answer says what the test's own publishers release: real past papers where they exist, otherwise official familiarisation, and whether you can mark it. It cannot tell you what will be in this year's test, and a mark on a sample is not a standardised score.
