Hertfordshire no longer has any fully selective grammar schools, however, there are several partially selective schools which allocate a number of places to children based on their 11+ results.
These schools are extremely demanding, and there is intense competition for these places.
The Consortium schools listed below allocate a number of places based on academic ability following the 11 plus tests.
Some schools admit students based on other skills, such as an aptitude for music, PE or technology.
If your child is applying under the academic route, they will have to take two tests with a short break in between them.
- Mathematics test: 50 questions in 50 minutes, based on the Key Stage 2 curriculum.
- Verbal reasoning test: 60 minutes, which includes a 15-minute practice paper, with 100 questions.
