Grammar schools in Guildford
There are no grammar schools in Guildford.
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 Surrey is not one of them, so every state secondary in Guildford admits without a selective test.
The nearest is Tiffin School, about 17.2 miles away in Kingston upon Thames. Most grammar schools accept out-of-area applicants, though distance is often a tie-breaker when a school is oversubscribed.
