Key Stage 3 students are expected to reach level 5 or 6 as compared to the Government standards.
The 13+ Common Entrance Examinations are formulated by the Independent Schools Examinations Board (ISEB) and taken by boys and girls for entrance to senior independent boys’ and mixed schools at age 13+. Children at the age of 13+, are required to sit examinations in core subjects such as English, Mathematics and Science in November, January and May or June of Year 8 prior to entry to senior school the following September.
