Lincoln Christ's Hospital School

Lincolnshire has two separate 11+ tests depending on the school: 1. Lincolnshire Consortium of Grammar Schools (LCGS) test — used by 14 of the 15 grammar schools. Two GL Assessment multiple-choice papers, no English or Maths component: a Verbal Reasoning paper (around 50 minutes, roughly 85 questions) and a Non-Verbal & Spatial Reasoning paper (around 35 minutes, strictly sectioned — children complete each section in order and cannot skip ahead or go back). Registration is done once in Year 5 (deadline set annually by the consortium, historically around 30 June the year before entry) and covers every consortium school the family lists. 2. Caistor Grammar School — NOT part of the LCGS consortium, so a child applying to Caistor as well as another Lincolnshire grammar school sits two different sets of exams. Caistor runs its own two Verbal Reasoning papers in the autumn term of Year 6, with a separate, earlier registration deadline (historically mid-August). A combined score of 220 or more across both papers is needed to be eligible, targeting roughly the top quarter of applicants. For both tests, passing does not itself guarantee a place — a formal school application must still be submitted through the normal coordinated admissions process, and places are then allocated using each school's oversubscription criteria.
