Particular to this test
Covered
A reasoning test
Remelia reads the maths this test names as quantitative reasoning, the number part of a reasoning test, which it does not teach. Curriculum maths and English are kept up to the national standard beside the reasoning.
The last fortnight
No month is published, so the plan works to January of Year 6, when most GL Assessment tests are sat: an estimate.
Practice papers
GL-style papers in maths, English, verbal reasoning and non-verbal reasoning; a GL-style spatial reasoning paper; and the maths and English papers that need no exam.
In part
The timed mock In part
Not in this exam’s mock: Quantitative reasoning (Remelia does not teach it); Spatial reasoning question types other than hidden shapes, and folding and punching paper (the real section may set them).
Spatial reasoning In part

The page’s words
“The main points of entry are: • The EYFS stages: Baby Amesbury (9 months+) Pre-Nursery (2+), Nursery (3+) and Reception (4+) • The first year of the Preparatory school (Year 3 / aged 7+) • Year 7 (11+)”
“From Years 4 – 8 we will assess pupils using CAT4 tests, which are supervised either by the school’s SENCo or Deputy Head, Academic. The invitation to visit does not mean that a place will necessarily be offered.”
“As such entrance is broadly speaking non-selective, in so far as we do not have a competitive entry test. However, we do offer places taking into consideration the broad range of entrance demands of the 25+ senior schools for which we regularly prepare pupils at 11+ and 13+.”
