Apply for a late transfer grammar school test (12 and 13+)

Registration opens on 6 October 2025.

The deadline to register is 24 October 2025.

You must send us evidence by 24 October. Send this to us using our contact us form.

This must be provided for all applications no later than 24 October 2025. The address used for the first round of allocations will be the address at which the child is resident on 24 October 2025.

The address you enter on the online registration form must be the child's 'normal home address’ (where you and your child live together and is the child's only/main residence).

Proof of residence must be provided to confirm this, in the form of a Council Tax bill and current utility bill (gas or electric but not water no more than 3 months old).

If you are currently living overseas and moving to the UK or returning to your own property in Buckinghamshire for the academic year September 2026, make sure you apply with your overseas address and send us evidence of your move when you have it. We can only use your Buckinghamshire address when you are physically resident and have provided the evidence we need.

We will take your child’s new address into account in a later allocation round,

You will be required to provide proof of residence.

Where service families or families of other crown servants, who often move within the UK and abroad are posted to the area, a unit postal address or quartering area address will be sufficient in the absence of a new home address.

If you have moved into the area after the deadline of the 24 October 2025, refer to our in-year admissions process.

Send us the full name and date of birth of the sibling. If you do not tell us, your child may be ranked incorrectly.

Some grammar schools give higher priority to children in receipt of free school meals/Pupil Premium.

You must provide evidence for your child to be considered under this rule.

Send us a dated and signed letter from your child’s current school.

If you would like your application for your highest preference school to be considered under this rule, you must have a very strong reason for your child attending this particular school.

Not all schools have this rule so make sure you check their admission rules before applying.

If you would like to apply under this rule, you will need to submit evidence to us when you make your application.

This rule is not used to determine any adjustments to the grammar testing process for your child.

The deadline to register was 25 October 2024.
