Grammar schools in Bude
There are no grammar schools in Bude.
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, and Cornwall is not one of them, so every state secondary in Bude admits without a selective test.
The nearest is Devonport High School for Girls, about 34.4 miles away in Plymouth. Most grammar schools accept out-of-area applicants, though distance is often a tie-breaker when a school is oversubscribed.
