Understanding Grammar School Entry for Caversham Families

With just two Grammar Schools serving all of Reading, and no shared consortium test between them, families need to plan for two entirely separate application processes rather than one.
Here’s why strong 11 Plus preparation is important for Caversham families:

Caversham 11 Plus Preparation and Entrance Assessments

In Caversham, families often begin 11 Plus preparation early because entry to selective schools in Reading and the wider Berkshire area is competitive. Pupils may prepare for different entrance assessments depending on the school they are applying to, including the FSCE exams used by Reading School and the GL Assessment test used by Kendrick School.

Reading School (boys) Places and FSCE Exams

Reading School is a state-funded selective school for boys in Berkshire. For Year 7 entry, it offers 150 places, including 138 day places and 12 boarding places. Admission involves an independent entrance examination provided by FSCE, covering a broad range of Key Stage 2 skills across four papers.

Kendrick School (girls) Admissions and GL Assessment

Kendrick School is a selective girls’ Grammar School in Reading. For Year 7 entry, families must register directly with the school by the stated deadline and sit the GL Assessment 11 Plus test in September. Kendrick School must also be named on the local authority’s Common Application Form by the relevant deadline.

FSCE Entrance Tests and Reading School Curriculum

The FSCE entrance tests used by Reading School focus solely on areas of the KS2 National Curriculum through multiple-choice papers. With limited places and strong demand for selective schools in Reading and the surrounding area, focused preparation can help pupils become familiar with the different question types and improve their exam technique.

About 11 Plus Tutoring

How Local Families Have Prepared for the 11 Plus

The examples below are based on genuine families supported by 11 Plus Tutoring. Names and identifying details have been changed to protect their privacy.

"Turning Familiarity Into Confidence"

A Year 5 pupil from Caversham joined our Easter revision course due to stress from timed practice papers, which often caused them to freeze. Through structured practice in Maths, English, and reasoning, and with regular tutor feedback, they learned to approach each question calmly and strategically. By the end of the eight days, they were completing full papers with improved pacing and confidence for the Reading School and Kendrick School entrance tests.

"Fixing the Small Things That Cost Marks"

Another Caversham family wanted their child to stop losing easy marks to careless slips rather than genuine gaps in understanding. Tutors worked with the pupil to spot exactly where those errors kept happening, then built timed drills around those specific weak points. Over the course, the pupil became noticeably more careful under time pressure and developed a clearer, more consistent approach to unfamiliar question types.
