Does my postcode decide which grammar schools I can get into?

No. The finder uses a postcode only to show which tests are used nearby. Each school's own admissions policy decides who gets a place, and distance rules are measured from your exact address, so check each school's policy or compare them side by side.

Which 11+ schools can my child apply to?

Schools outside your own council area too: Kent tests children living anywhere in England, and Bexley's test is open to all children wherever they live. Your child must sit each school's test by its registration deadline, and you name every school on your home council's application. Single-sex schools admit only boys or only girls, and some schools give most places to children in a priority area, so check both before you register.

Does passing the 11+ guarantee a grammar school place?

No. Passing makes your child eligible. Kent, Medway, Wirral and Bexley councils all say so. In Bexley the 180 highest scorers go into the top priority group for their preferred Bexley grammar school; most other places go by distance from home.

Are the 11+ dates for September 2028 entry out yet?

Mostly not. Wirral, Buckinghamshire and the Slough Consortium have published dates for tests in autumn 2027. Wirral registration runs from 1 to 31 May 2027. Buckinghamshire registration runs from early May to early June 2027, with tests in early September. Slough registration opens in May 2027. Exact Buckinghamshire and Slough days are still to come. We add each area's dates as soon as the council, school or test provider publishes them.
