Understanding Bourne End Grammar School Qualification

With three Grammar Schools within reach of Bourne End, all sharing the same test but each running its own separate admissions process, strong preparation matters for whichever route a family chooses.
Here’s why strong 11 Plus preparation is important for Bourne End families:

Sir William Borlase's Grammar School

Sir William Borlase’s Grammar School, Marlow, admits 150 pupils into Year 7 each year, requiring the standard Buckinghamshire qualifying score of 121 in the Secondary Transfer Test.

Royal Grammar School

Royal Grammar School, High Wycombe, a boys’ school, offers around 182 Year 7 places, with the same 121 qualifying score required and priority then given by catchment area and straight-line distance for oversubscribed places.

Wycombe High School

Wycombe High School, the girls’ equivalent in High Wycombe, has a confirmed Published Admission Number of 192 for Year 7, also requiring a score of 121 or above to qualify.

Buckinghamshire Secondary Transfer Test

All three schools use the same Buckinghamshire Secondary Transfer Test, which is set by GL Assessment and covers verbal, non-verbal, and mathematical reasoning. After students achieve the qualifying score, each school applies its own catchment area and oversubscription criteria.

How Local Families in Bourne End Have Prepared for the 11 Plus

Getting Comfortable With Longer Papers

A Year 5 pupil from Bourne End came into our Easter course finding full-length papers tiring, with concentration dropping noticeably in the final section. Through structured practice building up paper length gradually, alongside regular tutor feedback, the pupil learned to pace their energy across a whole test rather than front-loading effort. By the final session, they were completing full papers with much steadier focus throughout, ready for whichever Buckinghamshire Grammar School they'd go on to sit for.

Building Confidence in Non-Verbal Reasoning

Another Bourne End family wanted extra support with non-verbal reasoning specifically, since their child found the pattern-based questions far trickier than the verbal and Maths sections. Tutors worked through common question types systematically, building recognition and speed through repeated timed practice. Over the eight days, the pupil grew noticeably more confident with unfamiliar patterns and stopped skipping questions they weren't sure about, approaching every question with a proper attempt instead.
