Why practise written English?

Longer written responses need different skills from multiple-choice questions. Practising real writing and getting constructive feedback can help identify what to work on next.

Practise under realistic timing

Use 5 minutes to plan, then 15 minutes to write. Afterwards, review the finished piece with QuillSquare feedback and choose a focus for your next attempt. Dulwich publishes a specimen task in its admissions guidance.
