Wolverhampton, WV6 0BY · Wolverhampton grammar school
Wolverhampton Girls' High School uses the West Midlands Grammar Schools Entrance Test — the shared GL Assessment test also used by the Birmingham, Walsall and Telford grammars: Two one-hour multiple-choice papers, each covering English comprehension, verbal reasoning, mathematics and non-verbal/spatial reasoning, with answers on an OMR (optical mark reading) sheet. Published weighting: 50% English/verbal reasoning, 25% non-verbal reasoning, 25% mathematics; scores are age-standardised. One registration (early May to late June of Year 5) and one September sitting covers every West Midlands consortium school named on the form.
Of the 131-student 2019/20 leaver cohort, sustaining a higher-education destination the following year. This is the last cohort the Department for Education published with an Oxbridge/Russell Group breakdown — these categories were discontinued as official accountability measures after this release, so a more recent figure does not exist.
Median price for the school's electoral ward, year ending March 2023 — a neighbourhood-level indicator, not the school's actual admissions catchment (catchments are often smaller than a ward or span parts of several).
Data sourced from GIAS, Ofsted and official Wolverhampton admissions publications. Figures can change year to year — always confirm with the school before applying.
