Parents in Alcester and Studley reminded to register their children for the 11+

REGISTRATION is now open for the 11+ entrance test for Warwickshire grammar school places in 2027.

​Parents who would like their child to be considered for a Year 7 place at one of the county’s grammar school in September 2027 are reminded they must register their child for the 11+ test by June 30.

The 11+ test is used to assess whether a child is eligible for a place at one of Warwickshire’s grammar schools. The test is open to all children who will be starting secondary school in September 2027 (those currently in Year 5).

The deadline to register is 4pm on Monday June 30. Any registrations submitted after this date will not be classed as being ‘on time’.

The test itself will take place on September 12 and 13, and parents will receive their child’s results in October, before the deadline to apply for a secondary school place on October 31.

Warwickshire County Council’s education spokesperson Coun Wayne Briggs said: “Grammar school places in Warwickshire continue to be in high demand, so it’s important that families are aware of the key dates for the 11+ test. Registering before the deadline is essential if they want their child to sit the test in September.

“During registration, families can also share details of any special educational needs, medical considerations or access requirements, allowing us to put appropriate support in place for their child on the day of the test.”
