11+ entrance test

Shropshire, Walsall and Wolverhampton Grammar Schools Consortium Test

One shared entrance test, with a single online registration, for five grammar schools in Newport, Walsall and Wolverhampton. Each school sets its own qualifying score and admissions rules, so passing makes your child eligible to be considered but does not guarantee a place.
