The page’s words
“Entry at 11+ (Year 7) is the main external entry point to the Prep School ... Year 6 pupils sit the ISEB Common Pre-Test at their own Prep Schools in the October/November before entry. Assessment day includes a Cranleigh School visit and interview”
- How to join Cranleigh Senior, Cranleigh School checked 22 September 2026
The page’s words
“The main route for 13+ entry is Year 6 pre-testing (ages 10–11) where they take the CAT 4 test. Pupils applying later follow a different route, with CAT 4 testing in Years 7 and 8 instead.”
