How to Apply

For entry to Year 7

Your son or daughter will be invited to come and sit our on-line Entrance Tests, which are held in November of theYear 6.

If all has gone well, you will receive an offer of a firm place at St. Edward's. We ask you to accept the place by paying a £300 deposit, which is set against the fees for the final term of U6th (Year 13). When we receive your deposit, the place for your child is secured. Once we reach our limit, later acceptances will be put on the waiting list.

Entrance to Years 8, 9 or 10 is by individual Entrance Tests and depend on whether we have room in the Year Group you require. We try to be flexible, but once a Year Group is full, we cannot increase class sizes to take extra pupils. We do not normally accept pupils into Year 11.

Entrance to the Sixth Form is by interview at any time or by Scholarship Exams in November. Entrants must have a minimum of 5 GCSEs at grade C or above and preferably at least a grade B in subjects chosen for A-Level. Applicants for Academic Scholarships should be predicted all A*/A grades at GCSE. Sport, Music, Drama, Art and The Performing Arts Scholarships are also available. Applicants come to the School individually for assessment.
