Grammar schools in East Riding of Yorkshire
There are no grammar schools in East Riding of Yorkshire.
Grammar schools are state secondaries that select by ability, usually through an 11+ test. Only 47 of the 226 local authorities in the UK still have any — East Riding of Yorkshire is one of the majority that does not, so local state secondaries admit without a selective test.
