Questions parents ask

Which 11+ test do grammar schools in Buckinghamshire use?
Every grammar school in Buckinghamshire uses the Buckinghamshire Secondary Transfer Test, which covers verbal reasoning, maths and non-verbal reasoning. One registration covers all of them.
When does my child sit the test?
Usually in September of Year 6, for a place in Year 7 the next September, after registering in the spring or summer of Year 5. The registration page has this year's dates.
Do we have to live in the area?
Not always to sit the test, but many schools give priority by distance or a catchment area. Read each school's admissions policy on its website before you choose.
What is the pass mark?
It is set by the area or the school, and it can change every year. We do not show it, because an old mark can mislead; the registration page has the current rules.
