Already have a 2026 test result?

Nearby schools can use different tests and admissions rules. Open the guide for the test your child took, then check the current policy for each school you want to name on your home council's application.

Aylesbury's nearby grammar schools share a test, not an offer

The 3 listed grammar schools within one mile of the published Aylesbury reference point use the Buckinghamshire Secondary Transfer Test. Each school is its own admissions authority, so check the individual school guide and current policy for its places and priority rules. A short distance from the town point does not establish your child's priority area or chance of an offer.

For September 2027 entry, Buckinghamshire says a standardised score of at least 121 qualifies a child for consideration, but it does not guarantee a place. Buckinghamshire residents must apply by 31 October 2026. Families elsewhere apply through their home council and check its deadline. The school application is separate from the test.

The three schools use different rules below 121:

  • Aylesbury Grammar School has up to six 115–120 places for looked-after or previously looked-after boys living anywhere, or catchment Pupil Premium boys. Check its 2027 policy.
  • Aylesbury High School has up to six 115–120 places for catchment girls in its Pupil Premium or specified care and adoption categories. Check its 2027 policy.
  • Sir Henry Floyd Grammar School has up to six places above its admission number for eligible Free School Meals or Pupil Premium applicants scoring 110–120, ranked by distance. Its 2027 policy requires a letter and evidence by 31 October 2026.

These are limited priority categories, not general lower pass marks. Check each policy and your address against the school's own rules before choosing preferences.

Schools are ordered by approximate straight-line distance. Some are in neighbouring towns. Offers are the published National Offer Day count for September 2026 entry, rather than available places for the next intake.

Nearby does not mean in catchment

These distances do not establish a priority area or eligibility. Check each school's determined policy, published qualification rules and the council's application process.

Entrance routes for these schools

Different tests can serve schools near the same town. Read the relevant route before choosing practice, registering or arranging score sharing.

Check sourced registration, test and results dates

Plan an application from this town

  1. Open each school guide to check qualification, priority and current admissions evidence.
  2. Check travel from your home address. A straight-line radius can cross rivers, county boundaries or routes with slow public transport.
  3. If your child has a test result, read the guide for that route and submit your home council's school application by its published deadline.
  4. If you are planning for a later entry year, check each test's registration window and whether its score must be shared with another school.
  5. Put schools in your genuine preference order and include an option your child is eligible for.
