Entrance Examination
Our 11+ Entrance Examination will be held on Saturday 29th November 2025 (for 2026 entry).
The Entrance Examination will consist of tests which are non-subject specific and which test a pupil’s academic potential. They cover verbal, non-verbal, spatial and quantitative reasoning skills. Alongside these standardised tests, girls sit a short creative writing paper and a brief mathematics extension exercise. We do not provide past or sample papers.
