Form 7 (11+) and Form 9 (13+) Entry 2026

Form 7 (11+) is our main entry point to our Prep School. Children who wish to join the school for Form 7 (11+) 2026 entry are required to register in advance of the entrance assessments which will take place on Saturday 15th November 2025. Prior to the assessments, candidates will be invited to participate in a group 11+ Taster session which will take place on Friday 7th November 2025.

The entry assessments for Form 7 include papers in English (comprehension and creative writing) and maths, as well as participation in a range of team building and leadership challenges.  All candidates will be interviewed by the Headmaster or a member of the Senior Management team. Prior to the assessments, the pupil's current school is contacted to request a report on their progress and potential.

Although this is not a standard entry point we are able to take pupils in Form 9 (13+) if places become available. As GCSE courses commence in Form 9, we are unable to offer places into Forms 10 and 11 except in exceptional circumstances.  

The entry assessments for Form 7 (11+) and Form 9 (13+) are also used to identify candidates eligible for scholarship awards for academic excellence. Scholarship candidates for Art, Drama, Music, Performing Arts and Sport awards will be assessed in the Lent term of Form 6 and Form 8 and further details can be found in our scholarship section.

If you are interested in a place for Form 7 (11+) or Form 9 (13+) in September 2025 please contact Annabella Toms.
