Waiting lists are kept at every age group in case a place should become available. Any girl applying will be invited to spend a day with the year group which she would join and will be tested on writing, comprehension and numeracy. She will also be observed in her social interaction with her peers.
Because of the short time in Year 6 before the 11+ examinations in January, it is unlikely that an occasional place which occurs at the end of Year 5 will be filled.
