The 11+ exam is a test taken by some Year 6 pupils when they start Year 6 in September. It is not compulsory, but if you want to apply for a place in some secondary schools in Hertfordshire, your child will have to sit the test. Registration for the 11+ exams usually opens in April or May when your child is in Year 5. Some schools also have other tests, such as a a music test, or a Sports Aptitude test which must be applied for at the same time, via the South-West Herts Consortium Website.

There are seven partially selective schools in South-West Hertfordshire which require applicants to sit the 11+ Test and/or another test:

• Croxley Danes (a percentage of places are offered based on music results)
• Parmiter's (a percentage of places offered based on results of the music and 11+ tests)
• Queens' (percentage of places offered based on results of the music, sport and 11+ tests)
• Rickmansworth (a percentage of places offered based on results of music and 11+ tests)
• St Clement Danes (a percentage of places offered based on results of music and 11+ tests)
• WBGS (a percentage of places offered based on results of music and 11+ tests)
• WGGS (a percentage of places offered based on results of music and 11+ tests)

Clicking on the schools' links above will take you to their admissions pages where you can see their admissions criteria, and also download a Supplementary Information Form (SIF).
