Slough Consortium 11+ arrangements for September 2023 entry

The Slough Consortium of Grammar Schools consists of Herschel Grammar School, Langley Grammar School, St Bernard’s Catholic Grammar School and Upton Court Grammar School. The purpose of the Consortium is to coordinate arrangements for entry to Year 7 through a common 11+ examination.
We operate a shared 11+ entrance examination process using the same examination papers and common eligibility criteria. The 11+ examination for entry in September 2023 was held on Saturday 17 September 2022.
Please note that registration for the 11+ examination closed on 12th June 2022.
Results for the 11+ examination held in September 2022
The results for the 11+ examination for the Slough Consortium of Grammar Schools will be available from 4pm on Friday 14th October.
Please log on to the portal to view your child’s 11+ result:
Please use the email and password you set when registering your child for the examination.
To see the result – please click on ‘update’ under the test results icon.
If your child scores 111 or above in the test, they will be eligible to be considered for a place at any of the Slough Consortium grammar schools that you name on your Common Application Form.
Please note that the 11+ results do not in any way mean your child is being offered a grammar school place.
There will be far more eligible applicants than there are places available, so schools will apply their oversubscription criteria to decide how the places are offered. If you have questions about any particular school’s admissions arrangements, please contact that school’s admissions officer directly.
You must complete your Common Application Form by 31st October, listing the schools to which you wish to apply in your genuine order of preference. If a school requires an additional supplementary information form to be completed to help them decide on how to allocate places, this must be submitted to the school concerned by 31st October. Returning a supplementary form is simply providing the school with further required information – it does not guarantee that you will be offered a place.
You will be able to find out which school your child has been allocated on 1st March 2023.

The Open Evening event is complemented by online resources for you to view at home. Further details can be found on our dedicated Open Events page here.
We have also held four Open Mornings in October 2022, when prospective students and parents toured the school and had the opportunity to talk to our headteacher and other members of the senior leadership team.
Unfortunately we cannot offer individual school tours outside the above events.
Eligibility for entry to the Slough grammar schools
Admission to any of the four grammar schools in Slough is based on reaching an eligibility score in the consortium 11+ examination. A standardised score of 111 or above represents approximately the top third of the 11+ examination outcome range.
Any child reaching a score of 111 on a standardised scale is deemed potentially suitable for the kind of education offered by the grammar schools in Slough and is eligible for consideration for admission. However, each of the four schools have different criteria for admission in the event that they receive more applications than they have places available and you must check each school's admissions policy carefully.
