• Skipton Girls' High School entrance test

  School-specific assessment · Future Stories Community Enterprise Ltd (FSCE) · Two selection assessments in English and Mathematics, with multiple-choice and written-response items. Papers are computer-marked and age-standardised; the booklet says written elements take place on one in-person day at Skipton Girls' High School.

  All papers are computer-marked and age-standardised; candidates are found suitable by reaching the required standard. The policy does not publish a fixed numeric cutoff. After suitable applicants named on an EHCP, the oversubscription order is looked-after and previously looked-after girls, girls registered for Pupil Premium or whose families receive Universal Credit, Priority Area girls, then girls living outside that area, with straight-line distance as the tie-break. Reaching the standard is not a guaranteed place. PAN is 120.

Eligibility

Girls must sit the school's English and mathematics selection tests, be deemed suitable by reaching the required selection standard, and name the school on the home local authority Common Application Form.

Score policy

The Trust sets two selection tests in mathematics and English. Applicants are informed whether they are deemed suitable; reaching the required standard does not guarantee a place, and suitable applicants are allocated under the published oversubscription criteria.

Oversubscription

After suitable EHCP-named applicants, priority is looked-after and previously looked-after girls, girls registered for Pupil Premium or whose families receive Universal Credit, girls living in the school's priority area, and then girls outside it; straight-line distance breaks ties within a group.
