Farnham Royal, SL2 3AW · Buckinghamshire · primary school
Catchment area is the primary criterion (after EHCP/looked-after), ahead of siblings; distance only used as tiebreaker within/after catchment.
The STT is produced by GL Assessment and consists of two multiple-choice papers, each about 60 minutes including a short break between them: 1. Verbal skills — comprehension, technical English, and verbal reasoning. 2. Mathematical and non-verbal skills — maths and non-verbal/spatial reasoning. A shorter practice test is normally given about two days before the main test so children know what to expect and become familiar with the question style. Children at state-funded Buckinghamshire primary/partner schools sit the test at school during the school day.
Same area, prioritising the same phase — useful for shortlisting alternatives.
Data sourced from GIAS, Ofsted and official Buckinghamshire admissions publications. Figures can change year to year — always confirm with the school before applying.
