Cleckheaton, BD19 3AQ · Kirklees · secondary school
Heckmondwike Grammar School's entrance exam is produced by FSCE (Future Stories Community Enterprise) — the same provider now used by several northern grammar schools — and includes BOTH multiple-choice and written-response questions (English and maths based). The exam is sat at the school in mid-September of Year 6; roughly the top 25% of candidates reach the eligibility standard. Register directly with the school in Year 5; results arrive in October before the 31 October application deadline. Note: FSCE papers differ in style from traditional GL Assessment multiple-choice tests — practice material for GL-based areas won't fully match this format.
Same area, prioritising the same phase — useful for shortlisting alternatives.
