Understanding Great Missenden Grammar School Qualification

Competition for Buckinghamshire grammar school places is strong, making Easter a useful time for Great Missenden pupils to consolidate their skills before the autumn assessment.
Key benefits of thorough 11 Plus preparation for Great Missenden pupils:

The Buckinghamshire Secondary Transfer Test

The Buckinghamshire Secondary Transfer Test, produced by GL Assessment and coordinated by Buckinghamshire Council, requires candidates to achieve a score of 121 or above to qualify automatically. The assessment consists of two papers that evaluate verbal, non-verbal, and mathematical skills.

Dr Challoner's Grammar School (boys) Places

Dr Challoner’s Grammar School includes Great Missenden, Amersham, Chesham, and Prestwood within its defined catchment area. The school is a boys’ grammar institution with a co-educational sixth form and a Published Admission Number of 180 for Year 7. Priority is given to qualifying boys residing within the catchment area.

Dr Challoner's High School (girls) Places

Dr Challoner’s High School, the girls’ counterpart located in Little Chalfont, applies the same Secondary Transfer Test and qualifying score, with a Published Admission Number of 180 for Year 7. Families are advised to consult the school’s current catchment map to determine the status of Great Missenden addresses.

Buckinghamshire Council Admissions

Buckinghamshire Council reports that the number of children achieving the qualifying score each year exceeds the number of available places. Therefore, attaining the score is necessary but does not guarantee an offer of admission.

"Making Progress Through Targeted Practice"

A local Year 5 pupil entered the Easter programme with a reasonable foundation but needed additional practice to improve consistency. Tutors used timed activities and targeted questions to highlight areas where marks were being lost. With this clearer focus, the pupil was able to use subsequent practice more effectively and developed greater confidence in their ability to handle the demands of the September assessment.

quotation-mark

"Developing a Stronger Exam Approach "

Another local pupil joined the Easter programme after finding that completing 11 Plus questions within the allotted time was challenging. The course provided regular opportunities to work through timed tasks and mock papers while receiving guidance from an experienced tutor. Gradually, the pupil became more efficient when answering questions and more confident in applying their knowledge under exam-style conditions.
