UCUpton Court Grammar School 11+ admissions

• Slough Consortium of Grammar Schools 11 Plus

  Formal consortium · GL Assessment · Two GL Assessment papers, approximately 60 to 65 minutes each, with answers recorded on separate computer-marked answer sheets; the provider marks and standardises the scores.

  GL Assessment standardises the combined results. For September 2027 entry, a standardised score of 111 or above is the eligibility threshold, described by the consortium as approximately the top 35% of that test cohort. Eligibility is for consideration only and does not guarantee a place; each school applies its own oversubscription criteria.

  Provider change for September 2028 entry

  For September 2028 entry, the Slough Consortium will use Quest Assessments for the test sat in September 2027. Its schools say the test will still have two papers across English, maths, verbal and non-verbal reasoning, and the eligibility score will remain 111. Exact registration and test dates need checking with the consortium.
