Candidates Who Apply Whilst in Year 7

Candidates who wish to apply for a place to join Year 7 after the beginning of the academic year when the student is already in Year 7 will be required to have qualified at 11+ through one of the Lincolnshire Consortium Grammar Schools OR to take the GL Assessment test papers (as outlined in the information on this website about the 11+ tests or in the relevant admission policy) which will be marked and standardised to the common Lincolnshire Consortium standard. It should be noted that the 11+ may only be taken once, be this in Year 6 or Year 7.

Those who attain the qualifying score (220+) in the tests will either:

• be offered a place if there are any remaining
• be placed on a reserve list, if all the places have been filled

Candidates who took the 11+ tests while in Year 6 and who did not achieve the qualifying score cannot apply for late entry into Year 7 but may apply to sit the school's entrance test to be considered for entry into Year 8 at the beginning of that academic year.

Please note that the Year 7 group (entry September 2022) is over-subscribed and we are holding a reserve list of boys who have passed the test and have already applied for a place.  If you do wish to register your son to take these tests please complete the form which can be downloaded from the bottom of this page and return to Mrs Louise Wood (Admissions Officer) at:  louise.wood@kings.lincs.sch.uk

The School's entrance tests (11+ Verbal Reasoning and Non-Verbal Reasoning and Spatial Awareness to be sat a week apart) will be offered on the following dates and times:

Thursday 2 and 9 March 2023 at 9.30 am

Thursday 4 and 11 May 2023 at 9.30 am

Thursday 6 and 13 July 2023 at 9.30 am

Candidates must attend both sessions.
