Understanding Cippenham Grammar School Qualification

Due to the consistently high demand for places at Slough’s Grammar Schools, families in Cippenham frequently utilise the Easter holidays to prepare in advance for the autumn entrance examination.
Key benefits of thorough 11 Plus preparation for Cippenham pupils:

The Slough Consortium 11 Plus

The Slough Consortium 11 Plus is a standardised GL Assessment entrance examination administered by all four Slough Grammar Schools. Candidates complete two multiple-choice papers assessing English, Maths, Verbal Reasoning, and Non-Verbal Reasoning. A standardised score of 111 or above is required to meet the eligibility threshold.

Herschel Grammar School

Herschel Grammar School allocates 150 Year 7 places and enforces a defined admissions catchment area of approximately four miles. Satisfying the 11 Plus eligibility requirement does not exempt applicants from fulfilling the school’s additional admission criteria and priority rules.

Upton Court Grammar School Places

Upton Court Grammar School is a co-educational institution with an integrated sixth form, offering 165 Year 7 places. After allocating places to pupils with Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs) and designated feeder-school allocations, the remaining places are then distributed according to the school’s published priority criteria.

Slough Borough Council

Achieving the 11 Plus eligibility threshold does not guarantee admission to a Grammar School. Slough Borough Council notes that the number of pupils attaining the qualifying score generally exceeds the total number of available places across the Grammar Schools.

"A More Structured Start to 11 Plus Preparation"

With the September Slough Consortium 11 Plus still ahead, a Cippenham Year 5 pupil used the 2025 Easter holidays to bring more structure to their revision. The course combined live teaching, timed mock practice and personalised tutor feedback, helping the pupil recognise weaker areas and understand how to approach different question types. By the end of the programme, revision was more focused and the pupil felt more confident about continuing preparation towards the autumn exam.

"Tackling Challenging Areas with Confidence"

Over the eight-day programme, the pupil became more familiar with multiple-choice formats, improved their approach to difficult questions and developed greater confidence when working independently.
