The 11+ examination is taken in the autumn or spring term.

A candidate may be registered at a second senior school. It is important that the parents have previously obtained the agreement of that school to be second choice. If a candidate fails to gain entry to the first-choice senior school, the scripts will be forwarded by that senior school to the second-choice senior school.

Subjects
All candidates take English, Mathematics and Science.

At 13+ they may offer any of the following:
French, Geography, German, Greek, History, Latin, Mandarin Chinese, Religious Studies and Spanish.

Queries about options and levels should be addressed to the senior school for which the candidate is registered.
