A shared 11+ entrance exam used by 5 grammar schools, administered by SET (Selective Eligibility Test), testing English, Mathematics, Reasoning. Selective Eligibility Test. Max score: 420. Determines eligibility for Sutton and Kingston grammar schools. Our entrance test is broadly based on the KS2 curriculum and we do not consider it to be necessary for children to be tutored in order to gain access to the entrance test. We never allow 11+ tutoring companies in our schools. Mid Term Admissions will only be considered when the number of students in the relevant year group falls below the Published Admission number. In the event of a place becoming available, all students on the relevant waiting list will be invited in to sit tests in English and Maths appropriate to their age group. Candidates who pass both tests will be considered to be of selective ability. Candidates who fail to meet the pass mark in any of the tests will not be able to resit the test at any point in the future and will only be eligible to join the School in the Sixth Form. Last year nearly 60% of all A Level results were graded A*/A.
