Understanding Edlesborough Grammar School Qualification

Edlesborough is in the catchment area for both Aylesbury Grammar School and Aylesbury High School. This gives families two excellent options for Buckinghamshire’s selective schools, so preparing well over Easter is especially valuable.
Here’s why Edlesborough families should prepare carefully for the 11 Plus:

Buckinghamshire Secondary Transfer Test

GL Assessment runs the Buckinghamshire Secondary Transfer Test. This exam measures how well children solve verbal, maths, and non-verbal problems using words, numbers, pictures, and diagrams. Before the test, every child can review a familiarisation booklet. To build accuracy, speed, and confidence, practise all tested areas regularly over Easter with timed exercises.

Aylesbury High School in Year 7

To join Aylesbury High School in Year 7, students must pass the Buckinghamshire Secondary Transfer Test (11 Plus), managed by the Buckinghamshire Grammar Schools consortium. The test uses GL Assessment papers in English, Maths, verbal, and non-verbal reasoning. Students need a standardised score of at least 121 to qualify for a place.

Aylesbury Grammar School entry for Year 7

Aylesbury Grammar School entry for Year 7 requires boys to pass the same Buckinghamshire Secondary Transfer Test (11 Plus), managed by GL Assessment. Candidates must achieve a minimum qualifying standardised score of 121 to be eligible for a place.

Buckinghamshire Council

Buckinghamshire Council says that each year, more students qualify for Grammar School than there are places. While the qualifying score matters, admission offers depend on each school’s published admissions and oversubscription rules.

How Local Families Have Prepared for the 11 Plus

Solving Word Problems Step by Step

A Year 5 student from Edlesborough found it hard to solve Maths word problems at first. They would rush to do the maths without reading the whole question, which meant they made mistakes. By practising how to break problems into smaller steps and getting help from tutors, the student learned to read carefully and plan before starting. By the end, they could solve even tricky problems using clear steps.

Getting Used to Timed Tests

Another family in Edlesborough wanted their child to feel less worried when doing tests with a timer. At first, the child often ran out of time and left questions unfinished. Tutors started with shorter timed tests and slowly made them longer. They also gave tips on how to use time well in a test. After eight days, the child felt calmer and was able to finish whole papers without rushing at the end.
