Admission to our Senior School is at 11 years old, into Year 7. Entry to the Senior School is academically selective; assessments are taken in Year 6 for entrance the following September.
We will be following a similar process for 2025 entry as previous years. Please see the Senior Admissions Guide 2024 to give you an idea of key dates for entry and for details on the 11+ process. We are currently updating this for 2025 and will post the update here shortly.

Our typical cohort size is around 104, in four forms, with some variation year-on-year. Every five years, we have capacity in school to accept a larger cohort, taking it through from Year 7 to sixth form. We have recruited five forms for September 2024 entry, so will be reverting to four forms for September 2025.
Our Senior Admissions Guide 2024 details our admissions process and timelines for September 2024 entry:

For September 2024 entry, we will be testing Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning as our first stage. Tests will be taken in person at Wimbledon High School
The well-being of pupils is a key concern for us. We know that schools have fared differently during Covid and that learning has often been disrupted. We also know that our tests can be prepared for at home, without input necessary from a candidate's current school; pupils do not have to had endless practice in them. The results of the tests allow us to make fair, evidence-based decisions as to who will progress through to our second stage.
Applications for 11+ 2025 Entry will open in April/May 2024.
