Booking information will be available soon. We also offer a number of daytime tours to prospective families looking for 11+ or 13+ entry in 2024 or 2025. These tours are a great opportunity to visit us during a typical school day and will provide you with first-hand experience of life at St Albans School. The tour is led by one of our prefects and lasts approximately 60 minutes with the option of meeting with the Admissions Team afterwards. Please contact Admissions to arrange your daytime tour. |

Selection Criteria: Selective
We are a leading independent School for boys aged 11-18 and we welcome girls into our Sixth Form at 16+. Our main entry points are at 11+, 13+ and 16+.
For 11+ entry in September 2024, the Assessment Day is on Tuesday 9 January 2024. Registration is now closed.
At our 11+ Assessment we will be using a new online adaptive testing process. This new system is bespoke for St Albans School and seeks to discover a candidate’s potential in Maths, English, Verbal Reasoning and Non-Verbal Reasoning as well as creative and critical thinking, analysis, synthesis and problem-solving. This is a modern and efficient testing process which is fair, clear, robust and accessible to candidates from all schools and backgrounds. The adaptive aspect of the tests provides for greater differentiation and will result in a more precise evaluation of ability for high-ability candidates than standard tests. The tests are based on the National Curriculum which allows candidates in both state and independent schools to have equal accessibility.
The testing will be completed online at St Albans School during the 11+ Assessment Day and candidates will have a chance to undertake a familiarisation task before each test begins. There are seven parts to the assessment including Maths, English, Non-verbal Reasoning, Verbal Reasoning, Puzzles and Problem Solving and Creative Comprehension. There is no change to our interview process and all candidates will still have a 1:1 individual interview with a member of staff on the Assessment Day.
