Grammar schools in Fareham
There are no grammar schools in Fareham.
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 Hampshire is not one of them, so every state secondary in Fareham admits without a selective test.
The nearest is St George's School, about 11.9 miles away in Isle of Wight. Most grammar schools accept out-of-area applicants, though distance is often a tie-breaker when a school is oversubscribed.
