Grammar schools in Bromsgrove

There are no grammar schools in Bromsgrove.

Grammar schools are state secondaries that select by ability, usually through an 11+ test. Only 46 of the 226 local authorities in the UK still have any, and Worcestershire is not one of them, so every state secondary in Bromsgrove admits without a selective test.

The nearest is King Edward VI Five Ways School, about 7.1 miles away in Birmingham. Most grammar schools accept out-of-area applicants, though distance is often a tie-breaker when a school is oversubscribed.
