11+ Applications For Entry Into Year 7 (The 11+ Procedure)
11+ EXAMINATIONS AUTUMN 2020/ WINTER 2021
If further Covid 19 measures prevent holding or, in the School governors’ opinion, make it undesirable to hold 11+ exam(s) on the dates shown below, parents who have already applied for the exam will be notified and revised test date(s) will be published here when known.
The examination for the Late Main Round will be at this School on 7 January 2021 with a further examination on 21 January 2021 for boys who were ill or Covid 19 isolating on 7 January 2021. The online form for the Late Main Round examination opens on 2nd November 2020 and will close on 16th November 2021
What is the purpose of the Eleven plus selection procedure?
The Eleven plus selection procedure is designed to determine whether or not children in the autumn term of their final year at primary school are suitable for admission to a grammar school. Parents should note that meeting the academic requirements for entry to the School is not, in itself, a guarantee of an offer of a place.
How do I register my son for the Eleven Plus Test?
In order to register, the School's 11+ Application Form and the Local Authority Common or Secondary Application form (CAF or SAF) must both be completed.
Does the Eleven Plus Procedure take account of a Special Educational Needs, an Educational Health Plan or other barriers to learning?
Yes. See the Special Access Arrangements page.
What do I do if I wish to withdraw my son from the examination or he is unwell or isolating?
Please inform us as soon as possible at: admissions@bishopwordsworths.org.uk

Does it matter where we live?
For practical reasons we recommend that a pupil’s journey time should be under an hour in order that he can fully participate in the wider life of the school.
