What the entrance test covers

All three Plymouth grammar schools use papers from Quest Assessments, sat over two September Saturdays: Day 1 — English comprehension (about 40 minutes, ~60 questions: reading comprehension, spelling, punctuation, grammar). Day 2 — Mathematics in two sections: a 10-minute fluency paper and a 30-minute mathematical-reasoning paper (~60 questions total). Devonport High School for Boys additionally sets its own internal English WRITING paper on top of the shared Quest papers. One registration round covers the shared papers for all three schools; results arrive in October before the 31 October application deadline.
