Test Information
| In order for your child to be invited to sit the Aptitude Test, you will need to complete an entrance test request form when your child is in Year 5. If your child has a sibling in Year 7, 8, 9,10 or 12 in the Academy at the time of applying for a Year 7 place (October 2026) we will not be able to invite them to sit the test. Your child will enter under the Sibling Category, and therefore, you should apply using the PAN London form on the Local Authority website. |
The aptitude test will take place TBC in May 2026. The test is Verbal Reasoning to establish an aptitude for language.
This test is not compulsory for entry into Year 7. We offer 18 places to those who score the highest; no other criteria for admissions apply to these 18 places.
