Fit for 11+? · 11 Plus Journey

Fit for 11+?

How can you tell whether your child is genuinely fit for 11+? My daughter is keen to learn but after about 6 weeks of starting 11+ preparation I realised that she needs a lot of support getting the basics right first. She still doesn’t know all her times tables and tackling 11+ topics feels like such a steep learning curve. I almost feel cheated by her school reports now, I thought she was at a better level than she actually is (or perhaps my expectations are too high?). Did anyone consider practicing the basic national curriculum at home before moving on to 11+? If so, which books and resources would be best? My daughter is in year 4.
