11 Plus test

If you want your child to go to a grammar school they will be required to sit the 11 plus. In this region of Yorkshire there are several grammar school; Ripon Grammar, Ermysted and Skipton Girl’s High School to name a few. Admission for schools can vary for example Ermysted and Ripon Grammar are managed by North Yorkshire Local Authority. Skipton High School manages its own selection test. Most of the test take place in September.

There can be up to four different “disciplines” used for the 11 Plus tests – Verbal Reasoning, Non-Verbal Reasoning, Maths and English. Test paper combinations can vary considerably around the country.

Private School Entrance Exam

It is most likely that your child will have to sit an entrance exam if you want them to attend a private school. Tests can vary with some schools preparing their own test and others that may choose to use the Common Entrance Exam. This is a standard test set by the Independent Schools Examination Board (ISEB).

Pass marks can vary and the more desirable the school the higher the pass marks.

In many cases entrance tests are taken around 6 to 9 months before entry. We have experienced Tutors who have coached for Leeds Grammar School, Gateways and Harrogate Ladies College.
