Coming into the school, and watching us at work is very important. You will feel the sense of community which makes QEH Juniors so unique, and such a popular choice for parents who want their children to be their best self and love learning.
Entry to QEH Junior School
The main points for entry to QEH Juniors are Year 3 and Year 5 with our entry assessments held in the January prior to entry. Boys may be admitted to other year groups during the school year if vacancies exist.
Year 3 entry – Our assessments are based on English, maths and non-verbal reasoning. Each test is explained to your son, with examples and opportunities to request help before starting the assessment. Your son will be in school for the morning, and he’ll be able to join us for lunch, should you wish him to do so.
Year 5 entry – Our assessments for Year 5 are based on English comprehension, maths, verbal and non-verbal reasoning. Each test is explained to your son, with examples and opportunities to request help before starting the assessment. Your son will be in school for the day, he will have lunch and breaks with our current pupils.
The assessments are informal and your son will be relaxed and enjoy his time meeting the boys and staff. We will inform you if your son has been successful or unsuccessful in being offered a place as soon as possible after his assessment.
No practice test papers are issued by QEH but there are reasoning booklets, such as the ‘Bond’ series, for relevant age-groups.
