Admissions realismAdmissions realism: not yet assessed

Admissions realism depends on your home postcode and the school's published allocation data. Enter your postcode on this page to get a more specific assessment, and always verify the latest policy on the school's official admissions page.

This is a selective school. Admission usually requires passing an entrance test. Check the school's admissions policy for test registration deadlines.

Watch-outs
  • Selective admissions: an entrance test (usually the 11+ or equivalent) is required. Check registration and test dates well in advance.

Entry requirements

Spalding High School states that the planned admission number for Years 7 to 11 is 150. The 11+ information page says parents considering admission may visit by arrangement with the Headmistress and that registered pupils are invited to the school?s open day and transition events.

Exam dates and admissions evidence

The official 11+ information page says the school?s open day this year will be on Thursday 18 June, with a tour of the school, key staff and a talk from the Headteacher. It also says pupils selected for admission to Year 7 and their parents are invited to a June evening event, which for this cycle is stated as Tuesday 16 June. In this pass, the reviewed live page did not expose current 2027-entry test registration or exact test dates in plain text, so those structured fields were left blank.
