For admission to Year 7 (11+) application should be made one year prior to entry. Admission is by competitive examination in Maths, English and Verbal Reasoning, a group interview, and a report from a candidate's previous school. Up to 80 children are admitted at this age, into four parallel forms. The entrance examination provides the written part of the scholarship assessment. Occasionally pupils may be admitted by special examination at 12+ into Year 8.
