Grammar schools in Ware
There are no grammar schools in Ware.
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 Hertfordshire is not one of them, so every state secondary in Ware admits without a selective test.
The nearest is The Latymer School, about 14.5 miles away in Enfield. Most grammar schools accept out-of-area applicants, though distance is often a tie-breaker when a school is oversubscribed.
